Clinical Features of Okur-Chung Neurodevelopmental Syndrome: Case Report and Literature Review

[摘要] Introduction: Autosomal dominant pathogenic variations in the CSNK2A1 gene cause Okur-Chung neurodevelopmental syndrome (OCNDS). Methods: The proband and her parents were examined thoroughly and observed for any issues related to OCNDS. Furthermore, peripheral blood samples were collected from each subject for further investigations. Whole-exome sequencing identified a pathogenic variant in CSNK2A1A, p.R21Q; rs1402734448). Results: The proband has global developmental delay, speech disorders, epilepsy, and behavioral issues. Despite the previously reported cases, she manifested both atonic and myoclonic seizures simultaneously. Lastly, we provide a review of the reported cases with OCNDS. Discussion: p.R21Q causes OCNDS. Further studies are highly recommended concerning this mutation to validate the results of this study and expand the knowledge regarding CSNK2A1 and the phenotypic spectrum of OCNDS.
