SOX6-associated neurodevelopmental delayis ultrarare with less than 25 cases described in the literature. We report a new case who presented with early-onset mildly reduced intellectual function, facial asymmetry, skeletal abnormalities and dystonic tremor of hands and neck, substantially improved by levodopa. Given the therapeutic implications, SOX6 mutations should be considered in patients with complex dystonia parkinsonism.
