Overview

Reports a case of NDUFS6-related neuropathy in childhood, highlighting phenotypic diversity and implications for diagnosis.

Key Points

  • To explore the phenotypic diversity associated with NDUFS6 variants, particularly in childhood-onset cases.
  • Case report of a patient with a novel NDUFS6 variant
  • Utilized whole-exome sequencing for genetic analysis
  • Documented clinical manifestations including gait abnormality, weakness, and epilepsy
  • Identified a novel homozygous NDUFS6 nonsense variant
  • Patient exhibited a neuropathy-predominant phenotype without neonatal metabolic issues
  • Findings expand the known clinical spectrum of NDUFS6-related disorders
