D-Bifunctional Protein Deficiency Type III: Two Turkish Cases and a Novel HSD17B4 Gene Variant

The D-BPD type III cases profiled in this report exhibit a severe phenotype, which includes dysmorphic facial features, severe hypotonia, and refractory seizures that manifest from birth. One month after the VLCFAs analysis revealed something suggestive of a peroxisomal disorder, a targeted gene panel analysis could confirm the diagnosis.

Abstract

The D-BPD type III cases profiled in this report exhibit a severe phenotype, which includes dysmorphic facial features, severe hypotonia, and refractory seizures that manifest from birth. One month after the VLCFAs analysis revealed something suggestive of a peroxisomal disorder, a targeted gene panel analysis could confirm the diagnosis.
