In most cases there is a single etiological factor causing neuromotor developmental delay and epilepsy while sometimes more than one gene may be involved. These include the autosomal recessive inherited CAMSAP1 gene, which is associated with cortical developmental malformations such as pachygyria and lissencephaly and the autosomal dominant inherited NBEA gene, which plays crucial roles in vesicle trafficking as well as synapse structure and function. Loss of function of both genes together is a well-known disease mechanism.

Background: Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is characterized by aberrant calcification of elastic tissues throughout the body causing varying degrees of skin, cardiac, and ocular disease. Although PXE is classically regarded as an autosomal recessive disease, recent reports have demonstrated a haploinsufficiency phenotype, in which carriers of monoallelic ATP-binding cassette transporter () gene mutations demonstrate mild manifestations of PXE. In this case report, we describe a patient with a monoallelic mutation and atypical angioid streaks.

Early neonatal seizures have myriad causes and variable prognoses. While acute symptomatic seizures are the most common events, a significant number of cases have a genetic background for such seizures, and a timely diagnosis can help in appropriate management and prognostication. We present a case of a neonate referred to our center with multi-focal clonic seizure starting from the first day of life.

In this article, we present a case study of a five-year-old girl with autism and developmental delay, conducted at the Academic Center for Autism Research in Bratislava, Slovakia. The girl was diagnosed using Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule-Second Edition (ADOS-2) and Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised (ADI-R) instruments and met the criteria for autism spectrum disorder. Intellectual functioning was in the markedly below-average range, as indicated by the Snijders-Oomen Nonverbal Intelligence Test-Revised (SON-R) examination, and her level of adaptive functioning was significantly reduced.

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a progressive neuromuscular disorder caused by mutations in , with disease severity influenced by the number of copies. Although SMA is one of the most common autosomal recessive disorders, molecular diagnosis still presents challenges. We present a case series illustrating the variable clinical presentations and diagnostic complexities of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA).
