Variable clinical expression of Stickler Syndrome: A case report of a novel COL11A1 mutation.

We reported a novel COL11A1 mutation in a child with Stickler Syndrome presenting a phenotype of early-onset of ocular anomalies and mild hearing loss later in childhood. Our findings confirm the variability of the expression of the disease, even in the contest of the same gene-related disorder, thus, contributing to improve the knowledge on clinical and molecular basis of this rare disease.
