Phenotypical and Genotypical Expansion of Autosomal‐Dominant KDM1A‐Related Neurodevelopmental Disorder Spectrum: A Case Report

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT KDM1A‐related neurodevelopmental disorder (CPRF, OMIM #616728) is characterized by cleft palate, global developmental delay, and distinct facial gestalt, but phenotypic knowledge of this ultra‐rare autosomal dominant disorder is limited. Here, we report on a 13‐year‐old boy with a novel heterozygous, likely pathogenic germline missense variant
