This study is the second report of an association between biallelic NRCAM gene variants and a Mendelian disorder. The obtained clinical data, together with the molecular findings in this patient, expands the clinical and molecular spectrum of NRCAM-related disorder and highlights its phenotypic complexity. Although patients with loss of function variants in this gene have previously presented severe clinical features, we show that type of the pathogenic variant does not necessarily determine the severity of this phenotype.
