Genomic and phenotypic delineation of congenital microcephaly

PurposeCongenital microcephaly (CM) is an important birth defect with long term neurological sequelae. We aimed to perform detailed phenotypic and genomic analysis of patients with Mendelian forms of CM.MethodsClinical phenotyping, targeted or exome sequencing, and autozygome analysis.ResultsWe describe 150 patients (104 families) with 56 Mendelian forms of CM. Our data show little overlap with the genetic causes of postnatal microcephaly. We...
