We identified a novel de novo variant in the SLC2A1 gene in a patient who previously had a negative WES result. The patient has been diagnosed with GLUT1DS1. The syndrome is a treatable condition, but the differential diagnosis is not an easy process due to showing a wide range of phenotypic spectrum and the overlapping symptoms with other neurological diseases. The diagnosis necessitates a genomic testing approach. Our findings also highlight the importance of re-analysis to undiagnosed cases after initial WES to reveal disease-causing variants.
