We report the case of a 7-month-old girl with atypical oculo-facio-cardio-dental syndrome (OFCD). A novel de novo pathogenic mutation in the BCL6 interacting co-repressor gene (BCOR) (c.4540C>T; p.Arg1514*), was identified on the X chromosome. This case expands the phenotype of OFCD as it is the first report of a case presenting with craniosynostois, temporal hypertrichosis, supraorbital grooving, and underdevelopment of the midface.
