Gain of function variants. Green on other panels ID, DDG2P, Lipodystrophy. Red on Aus PanelApp fetal anomalies - phenotype deemed not prenatally relevant. PMID 29852244 reports normal pregnancy birth weight 30th centile. PMID 25620207 1case polyhdramnios but normal birth and head circumference. 2 other cases unremarkable pregnancy. 2 cases high palate, narrow nasal palate, 1 micrognathia. PMID 36071510 thin nasal bridge, shallow orbits with large eye.All studies suggest normal growth at birth. Subtle dysmorphic features unlikely to be detectable on scan?
