Novel variant in HPS3 gene in a patient with Hermansky Pudlak syndrome (HPS) type 3.

sequencing revealed a novel pathogenic homozygous variant (NM_032383.4:c.7>T, p.Gln3*) resulting in a premature stop codon at the amino acid 3. Moreover, our report highlights the importance of evaluating platelet function in children with OCA without bleeding diathesis to identify HPS early and prevent bleeding complications.
