Expanding phenotype of MED13-associated syndrome presenting novel de novo missense variant in a patient with multiple congenital anomalies.

Background: Whole exome sequencing allows rapid identification of causative single nucleotide variants and short insertions/deletions in children with congenital anomalies and/or intellectual disability, which aids in accurate diagnosis, prognosis, appropriate therapeutic interventions, and family counselling. Recently, de novo variants in the MED13 gene were described in patients with an intellectual developmental disorder that included global developmental delay, mild congenital heart anomalies, and hearing and vision problems in some patients.

Results: Here we describe an infant who carried a de novo p.
