Novel Compound Heterozygous Variants in the COG5 Gene Causing Fetal Hydrops and Skeletal Dysplasia

This study further expands the phenotypic and mutational spectrum of the COG5 gene, enhancing our understanding of COG5-CDG. Clinically, intellectual disability, developmental delay, brain abnormalities, skeletal deformities, microcephaly, short stature, vision abnormalities, and hepatic lesions are crucial diagnostic criteria for COG5-CDG. Other variable phenotypes of COG5-CDG can provide supporting information for prenatal diagnosis. The combined application of prenatal ultrasound and WES enables a more comprehensive and precise diagnosis of COG5-CDG, which will facilitate the implementation of early intervention and treatment.
