Mandibulofacial dysostosis with microcephaly: An expansion of the phenotype via parental survey [PDF]
AbstractMandibulofacial dysostosis with microcephaly (MFDM) is due to haploinsufficiency of spliceosomal GTPase EFTUD2. Features include microcephaly, craniofacial dysmorphology, developmental disability, and other anomalies. We surveyed parents of individuals with MFDM to expand knowledge about health, development, and parental concerns.

A de novo start-loss in EFTUD2 associated with mandibulofacial dysostosis with microcephaly: case report [PDF]
Mandibulofacial dysostosis with microcephaly (MFDM) is a rare genetic disorder inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern. Major characteristics include developmental delay, craniofacial malformations such as malar and mandibular hypoplasia, and ear anomalies. Here, we report a 4.5-yr-old female patient with symptoms fitting MFDM.

Mandibulofacial dysostosis with microcephaly: a syndrome to remember [PDF]
Mandibulofacial dysostosis with microcephaly (MFDM) is a rare condition that causes abnormalities of the head and face. Other major extracranial malformations may also be found. The authors present a case of an MFDM in a 35 weeks newborn with antenatal growth restriction.

Haploinsufficiency of a Spliceosomal GTPase Encoded by EFTUD2 Causes Mandibulofacial Dysostosis with Microcephaly [PDF]
Mandibulofacial dysostosis with microcephaly (MFDM) is a rare sporadic syndrome comprising craniofacial malformations, microcephaly, developmental delay, and a recognizable dysmorphic appearance. Major sequelae, including choanal atresia, sensorineural hearing loss, and cleft palate, each occur in a significant proportion of affected individuals.

“Mandibulofacial dysostosis with microcephaly” caused by EFTUD2 mutations: Expanding the phenotype [PDF]
AbstractHeterozygous mutations in the EFTUD2 were identified in 12 individuals with a rare sporadic craniofacial condition termed Mandibulofacial dysostosis with microcephaly (MIM 610536). We present clinical and radiographic features of three additional patients with de novo heterozygous mutations in EFTUD2.

A novel de novo missense mutation in EFTUD2 identified by whole‐exome sequencing in mandibulofacial dysostosis with microcephaly [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundMandibulofacial dysostosis with microcephaly (MFDM) is a rare multiple malformation syndrome characterized by malar and mandibular hypoplasia and congenital‐ or postnatal‐onset microcephaly induced by haploinsufficiency of (elongation factor Tu GTP‐binding domain‐containing 2) EFTUD2.MethodsWe report the case of a 16‐month‐old boy ...

A novel EFTUD2 splicing variant causing mandibulofacial dysostosis with microcephaly: a case report [PDF]
Mandibulofacial dysostosis with microcephaly (MFDM) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder caused by pathogenic variants in the EFTUD2 gene, presenting with craniofacial anomalies, microcephaly, and systemic abnormalities. Despite several reported cases, the genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying MFDM remain inadequately understood. This case study
