[en] CEDNIK (Cerebral Dysgenesis, Neuropathy, Ichthyosis, and Keratoderma) syndrome is a neuro ichthyotic syndrome characterized by a clinical constellation of features including severe developmental delay, microcephaly, and facial dysmorphism. Here, we report the clinical and molecular characterization of a patient with CEDNIK syndrome harboring two compound heterozygous variants in the SNAP29 gene. The patient presents a combination of a loss-of-function SNAP29 mutation and a ∼370 kb 22q11.2 deletion, each of these genetic variants inherited from one of the parents. This report provides detailed data of a patient with unprecedented genetic events leading to the CEDNIK phenotype and may contribute to the elucidation of this rare condition.
