The epilepsy phenotype of KCNK4-related neurodevelopmental disease.

Gain-of-function variants in KCNK4 cause a spectrum of epilepsies, ranging from benign isolated epilepsy to epileptic encephalopathy, with focal to bilateral tonic-clonic seizures being the most commonly observed. Importantly, a subgroup of patients present with a mild extra-neurological phenotype without characteristic facial dysmorphism or generalized hypertrichosis. This report expands the phenotypic spectrum of KNCK4-associated disease and provides new insights into the clinical heterogeneity of this rare neurodevelopmental syndrome.
