Connective tissue disorder and hypermobile joints, speech delay, speech apraxia, autism, dysmorphic facial features, recent weight loss, short stature, and an abnormal response to traumatic pain Note: Finding likely explains diagnosis of autism and related clinical findings, but there is no evidence to suggest that this patient’s connective tissue disorder is related to this CNV |
P6 | 2q37.2→2qter, 3q29→3qter | Mosaic unbalanced translocation | Dysmorphic facial features and congenital anomalies, with scaphocephaly, prominent metopic ridge, hypoplastic supraorbital ridge, high arched eyebrows, epicanthus inversus, short upslanting palpebral fissures, ptosis, blepharophimosis, narrow upper lip, mild micrognathia or retrognathia, midline cleft palate, patent ductus arteriosus, palmar crease abnormalities, tapered fingers, and hypoplastic nails; notable other phenotypic features include failure to thrive, developmental delay, intellectual disability, profuse sweating during feedings, and tachycardia |
P7 | 2pter→2p25.3, 16q23.3→16qter | Unbalanced translocation | Microcephaly and severe intellectual disability, with no speech and behavioral problems including repetitive, aggressive, and self-abusive behavior; patient described as having sleep difficulties, ataxic walking, and dysmorphic facial features including downslanting palpebral fissures, full lips, frontal upsweep, ptosis, strabismus, and dental crowding |
P8 | 19q13.11-12 | 1.7 MB de novo deletion | Progressive dystonia, prematurity (born at 28 weeks), dysarthria/anarthria, tongue dyskinesia, microcephaly, abnormal ocular movements, intellectual disability, some repetitive obsessive behaviors, and pyramidal tract signs on MRI; nonverbal and does not walk or eat independently; described as thin-appearing |
P9 | 18p | Tetrasomy 18p | Severe global developmental delay, nonverbal, ataxia, feeding difficulties, strabismus, aggressive behavior, dysmorphic features including occipital plagiocephaly, downslanting short palpebral fissures, low-set posteriorly rotated malformed small ears, smooth philtrum, mild prognathism, bilateral camptodactyly in the 3rd, 4th, and 5th fingers with absent distal interphalangeal creases, hypoplastic thenar eminences, and a right single transverse palmar crease; facial paralysis as an infant and asymmetric crying face |
P10 | 8p23.1 | 5.1 Mb gain (unknown de novo or inherited) | Intermittent rash; telangiectasia; acroparesthesia; numbness, pain, and swelling of extremities; joint pain; facial flushing; and headaches; CT scan revealed hypoperfusion in the left parietal lobe relating to ischemia; he also has hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, bradycardia, expressive speech delay, and a learning disability |
P11 | 6q22.1-31, 6q23.1, 11p15.4-3 | Multiple large deletions on 6q, inserted duplication of 11p into chr17 | Growth deficiency, microcephaly, intellectual disability with no speech, hyperactivity, large bulbous nose, epicanthal folds, short philtrum, small mandible, seizures; family history is pertinent for two maternal uncles who have little or no speech |
P12 | 14q32.2 | 23 kb de novo mosaic deletion to the promoter of MEG3 | Developmental delay, speech delay, behavioral difficulties, neonatal respiratory and feeding difficulties, hyperextensible and buckling phalanges, bilateral hallux valgus, and dysmorphic features including full cheeks, myopathic facies, prognathism, thick pinnas, strabismus, short forehead, bifrontal narrowing, midface hypoplasia, and anteverted nares |
P13 | 15q11.2 | 604 kb maternally inherited deletion of BP1–BP2 in the Burnside–Butler susceptibility locus | Episodes of ataxia, cyanosis, memory disturbance, speech difficulty, emesis, and severe pain in arms and legs, easy fatigue, constipation alternating with diarrhea, possibly due to intestinal dysmotility, as well as general abdominal distension and possible intussusception; ventricular tachycardia, frequent respiratory infections and rashes, and possible small fiber neuropathy were also noted; differential diagnoses include dysautonomias, mitochondrial disorders, energy depletion syndromes, and mast cell abnormalities |
P14 | 16p13.11 | 1.6 Mb gain, unknown inheritance |
Congenital inflammatory myopathy, hypotonia, muscle pain, absent reflexes, and motor delay; a muscle biopsy showed necrosis and paleness of sarcoplasma with eosinophilia, multiple vacuoles, and inflammatory infiltrate Note: This CNV was reported as a pathogenic incidental finding for 16p13.11 microduplication syndrome |
P15 | 7p22.1 | 749 kb deletion in PSM2 | Phenotype not applicable as CNV was discovered upon Secondary Findings analysis |
P16 | chr21 | Trisomy 21 |
Clinical diagnosis of Down syndrome (confirmed by karyotype). Additionally, patient is reported to have phenotypic features that are not consistent with a diagnosis of trisomy 21, including hypotonia that is more marked than expected, dermal ridge patterns with more arches than are typical, a small phallus, infantile spasms that are controlled on medication, a skeletal and long myopathic face, lumbar lordosis, scapular winging, tapered calves, absent reflexes, ptosis, and a lurching pelvis when walking. The patient is unable to walk without a walker. Family history is notable for nemaline myopathy. The patient’s mother’s phenotype includes weakness in childhood and a muscle biopsy revealing nemaline rods, consistent with a diagnosis of nemaline myopathy. She could not run or jump as a child, although her clinical presentation improved over time. Currently, she is reported to have few residual features although she cannot run. Note: CNV analysis revealed trisomy 21; in addition, a maternally inherited variant classified as likely pathogenic in ACTA1 was identified in both the proband and mother |
P17c | chr14 | Mosaic trisomy 14 | Developmental delay, ocular colobomas, low-set posteriorly rotated ears, hypomelanosis of Ito, solitary kidney, atrial and ventricular septal defects |
P18c | chr15 | UPD15, paternal | Global developmental delay with language delay, strabismus, coxa vulga, genu valgum, pes planus, low-set cupped ears with attached lobe, broad palate with alveolar ridge, short neck, inverted nipples, truncal obesity, broad-based ataxic gait, hypotonia, and lumbar lordosis |
P19b,c | chr16 | UPD 16, paternal |
Hypotonia, developmental delay, diffuse pachygyria with leukoencephalomalacia Note: Paternally inherited UPD 16 was considered an incidental finding for this patient as there is no evidence linking paternal UPD 16 in association with disease |
