SMARCE1-related Coffin-Siris Syndrome: Case report and otolaryngologic manifestations of the syndrome.

Abstract

Coffin-Siris Syndrome (CSS) is a genetic syndrome associated with multiple congenital anomalies due to mutations in the BAF-complex or SOX gene. Although well characterized overall, the subunits of the BAF-complex or SOX gene affected demonstrate phenotypic differences which are continuing to be defined. Among the variants is the SMARCE1 mutation, the least common identified genotype. This case report presents a pediatric patient with SMARCE1-related CSS, the seventh case reported in the literature. The congenital anomalies are discussed and compared to the reported cases of SMARCE1-related CSS and CSS overall with an emphasis on otolaryngologic manifestations.
