An atypical Aymé‐Gripp phenotype detected by exome sequencing

Aymé‐Gripp Syndrome (AGS) is an ultra‐rare syndrome characterized by peculiar facial traits combined with early bilateral cataracts, sensorineural hearing loss, and variable neurodevelopmental abnormalities. Only a few cases carrying a pathogenic variant in MAF have been described to date. A significant effort is then required to expand the genotypic and phenotypic spectrum of this condition. In this paper, we report the peculiar case of a 6‐year‐old girl carrying a de novo missense pathogenic variant in MAF, being the first case reported to show a milder phenotype with no cataracts and deafness displayed. Furthermore, we performed a systematic review of previously published cases, focusing on clinical manifestation and genotype.
