A prenatally diagnosed case of Meckel-Gruber syndrome with novel compound heterozygous pathogenic variants in the TXNDC15 gene.

Meckel-Gruber syndrome is a very heterogeneous syndrome in terms of the associated causal genes. In the first-line diagnosis, we used an next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based large gene panel, but only 10 MKS genes were available on the platform used. In the case of prenatal ultrasound findings that are highly suggestive of MKS and a negative NGS MKS gene panel, WES should also be performed to not miss rare gene associations.
