PUM1 has been very recently reported as responsible for a new form of
developmental disorder named PADDAS syndrome. We describe here an additional
patient with early onset developmental delay, epilepsy, microcephaly, and hair
dysplasia, with a de novo heterozygous missense variant of PUM1: c.3439C > T,
p.(Arg1147Trp). This variant was absent from databases and predicted deleterious
by multiple softwares. The same missense variant has been reported by Gennarino
et al., in a girl with much more severe epilepsy. Our report is in favor of a
variable expressivity of PADDAS syndrome, and broadens the phenotypic spectrum
with the description of hair dysplasia.
