Clinical Comment

Microcephalic primordial dwarfism due to RTTN deficiency is multiple congenital anomalies/dysmorphic syndrome with primary microcephaly, profound short stature, moderate/severe intellectual disability, global developmental delay, craniofacial dysmorphism (sloping forehead, high + broad nasal bridge), variable brain malformations, including simplified gyration, pachygyria, polymicrogyria, reduced sulcation, dysgenesis of corpus callosum + deformed ventricles. Renal anomalies, bilateral hearing loss, multiple joint contractures, severe failure to thrive, sacral lesion cephalad to the gluteal crease
