First report of paternal uniparental disomy of chromosome 8 with SLC52A2 mutation in Brown-vialetto-van laere syndrome type 2 and an analysis of genotype-phenotype correlations

ABSTRACT: Purpose: This study reports the clinical and genetic features of Brown-Vialetto-Van Laere syndrome (BVVL) type 2 in a case of uniparental disomy of chromosome 8 in mainland China and analyzes the genotype-phenotype correlation through a review of the literature of BVVL type 2 cases. Methods: The clinical characteristics, treatment, and follow-up data of the patient were summarized, and the etiology was identified by whole-exome sequencing and gene chip analysis. Correlations between the genotype and phenotype were analyzed by collecting clinical and genetic data of published cases and our patient. Results: We identified a homozygous mutation in SLC52A2 (NM_001253815.2 c.1255G>A) by trio-WES. Sanger sequencing confirmed that his father was heterozygous and his mother was wild type. Subseque
