Ludmila Volozonoka (Children's Clinical University Hospital)

Green List (high evidence)

While PMID:36338154 is the only reported case presenting prenatally as intrauterine growth retardation, I believe this gene should remain in the fetal anomalies panel to enable prenatal diagnosis of ITCH-associated conditions, as the majority of affected patients exhibit significantly short stature.
