Our results expand the genotype and phenotypes of SZT2-related DEEs, suggesting that SZT2 mutations play a role in developmental delay and epileptic encephalopathy, with high susceptibility to SE and relatively specific MRI findings.
Recently, biallelic SZT2 mutations were found in 7 patients (from 5 families) presenting with epileptic encephalopathy with dysmorphic features and/or non-syndromic intellectual disabilities.
