First Report of a Novel ZNF462 Variant Linked to Weiss-Kruszka Syndrome and Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia: Insights into Potential Additional Malformations
Importantly, our patient presented with a congenital diaphragmatic hernia - an anomaly not previously described in association with Weiss-Kruszka syndrome. To date, 48 cases have been reported in the literature. Our findings further broaden the phenotypic spectrum linked to <i>ZNF462</i> variants and emphasize the need for continued clinical and molecular characterization. Through the detailed documentation of this unique case, we aimed to enhance the understanding of the clinical variability and potential comorbidities associated with this emerging syndrome.
