Abstract

Lissencephaly type 10 is a recently reported condition characterized by posterior predominant abnormalities in gyration with associated seizures, developmental delays or intellectual disability. We report a boy who presented at 5 years of age with epilepsy and developmental delays. His family history was notable for epilepsy in two prior generations associated with variable developmental and cognitive impact. Exome sequencing identified a novel missense variant in CEP85L [NM_001042475.2; c.196A>G, p.(Thr66Ala)] which segregated in four affected family members across three generations. Brain imaging of the proband demonstrated a posterior lissencephaly pattern with pachygyria, while other affected family members demonstrated a similar subcortical band heterotopia. This report expands the phenotypic spectrum of this rare disorder by describing a novel variant in CEP85L in a family with variable clinical and neuroimaging findings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
