Bilateral congenital or childhood onset cataracts v2.6 PISD Arina Puzriakova changed review comment from: PMID: 31263216 (2019) - In two sets of brothers from unrelated consanguineous families, sequencing revealed homozygosity for a 10-bp deletion (c.904-12_904-3delCTATCACCAC) in the PISD gene. The patients presented with Liberfarb syndrome, characterised by early-onset retinal degeneration, skeletal dysplasia, short stature, developmental delay, microcephaly, and hearing loss. There was a concern for bilateral cataracts in one patient (patient 3), but a formal ophthalmological evaluation could not be performed. Authors noted phenotypic overlap with another previously described case (PMID: 3561949 (1986)), prompting follow-up investigation using paraffin-embedded tissue which yielded an identical homozygous variant. Haplotype analysis indicated a founder effect between all five individuals.

PMID: 30858161 (2019) - Two sisters with progressive short stature, skeletal dysplasia, white matter abnormalities, congenital cataracts, sensorineural hearing loss, and mild global developmental delay, associated with compound heterozygous variants (c.830G>A and c.697+5G>A) in the PISD gene.

PMID: 30488656 (2019) - Two unrelated individuals with an 'unclassifiable' form of spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia, as well as short stature, microcephaly, mild facial dysmorphism. Vision, hearing, and psychomotor development were reported to be normal for both patients. WES identified the same homozygous missense variant (c.797G>A) in PISD in both patients. Analysis revealed a common haplotype, which indicated remote consanguinity. Supporting functional data using patient-derived fibroblasts.; to: Associated with Liberfarb syndrome in OMIM, but not in G2P.
