Expanding the Phenotypic Spectrum Associated With Loss‐of‐Function SMARCA4 Variants to Eye Developmental Anomalies

Clinical Genetics, EarlyView.
This study expands the clinical spectrum of SMARCA4 by describing a novel phenotype in three unrelated individuals with truncating variants. Distinct from Coffin–Siris syndrome and rhabdoid tumor predisposition, this new association is characterized by ocular malformations, specifically microphthalmia and coloboma.
