Area decrements did not exceed 20%, therefore SETs were negative.

The G285E is considered to be a recessive mutation based on family and functional studies. This patient has had the entire coding sequence of the CLCN1 gene (encompassing consensus spice sites) analysed along with rearrangement analysis to detect exonic deletion/duplications, and only the G285E mutation was detected. We cannot exclude mutations in regulatory sequences elsewhere within the gene.
