A Case of Cerebral Folate Deficiency due to FOLR1 Mutation in a 10‐Year‐Old Girl: Clinical Presentation and Treatment Outcomes

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Cerebral folate deficiency (CFD) is characterized by reduced levels of folate, particularly 5‐methyltetrahydrofolate (5‐MTHF), in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). This case report describes a 10‐year‐old girl diagnosed with CFD due to a pathogenic mutation in the FOLR1 gene, which impairs folate transport across the blood–brain barrier.
