We describe the phenotype of a 5 year old girl with features resembling Temtamy syndrome, including agenesis of the corpus callosum, ventriculomegaly, frontal bossing, peaked eyebrows, ptosis, malformed and low set ears, a depressed nasal bridge, a long philtrum, and iris and chorioretinal colobomas. Features unique to this child include profound mental retardation, bilateral sensorineural hearing loss, agenesis of the corpus callosum, patent ductus arteriosus, ventricular septal defect, unilateral renal agenesis, neurogenic bladder and hydronephrosis. High resolution chromosome analysis demonstrated a de novo, balanced translocation [46,XX,t(2;9)(p24;q32)]; and her case has some overlapping phenotypic features with cases of monosomy for 2p. This is the first documented case of Temtamy syndrome with a specific chromosomal anomaly, and will assist with the elucidation of the syndrome's underlying genetic defect.

Background: Autism spectrum disorder is a major neurodevelopmental disorder. Temtamy syndrome is a rare syndromic intellectual developmental disorder that presents with global developmental delay, autism, seizures, and agenesis/dysgenesis of the corpus callosum.

Methods: We report a case of a male child who presented with global developmental delay, and autism.

Article Synopsis
  • The text discusses Temtamy syndrome, a rare disorder linked to open reading frame variants that lead to symptoms like intellectual disability and seizures, particularly involving the development of the corpus callosum.
  • It presents a case study of the first Indian child diagnosed with developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE) characterized by unique focal onset reflex seizures.
  • Whole exome sequencing revealed two significant genetic variants in the child, contributing to our understanding of this rare syndrome and expanding its representation within the Indian population.

Temtamy syndrome is an extremely rare disorder caused by chromosome 12 open reading frame 57 () pathogenic variants. The present study reported a boy with Temtamy syndrome displaying global developmental delay, epilepsy and dysmorphic facial appearance. Whole-exome sequencing was performed to identify a novel homozygous pathogenic variant of (c.

Temtamy syndrome is a syndromic form of intellectual disability characterized by ocular involvement, epilepsy and dysgenesis of the corpus callosum. After we initially mapped the disease to C12orf57, we noted a high carrier frequency of an ancient startloss founder mutation [c.1A>G; p.
