This case adds to the growing body of literature implicating chromosomal structural variants in the manifestation of this disorder and highlights the vital role of cis-acting regulatory elements in the normal expression of this gene. Finally, we propose a protocol for reflex FISH analysis to improve diagnostic efficiency for patients with suspected FOXG1 syndrome.
