Neurodevelopmental profiles of 14 individuals with phosphomannomutase deficiency (PMM2-CDG)

PMM2-CDG (formerly CDG-1a), the most common type of congenital disorders of glycosylation, is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern. PMM2-CDG frequently presents in infancy with multisystemic clinical involvement, and it has been diagnosed in over 1000 people worldwide. There have been few natural history studies reporting neurodevelopmental characterization of PMM2-CDG. Thus, a prospective study was conducted that included neurodevelopmental assessments as part of deep phenotyping. This study, Clinical and Basic Investigations into Known and Suspected Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation (NCT02089789), included 14 participants (8 males and 6 females ages 2-33 years) with a confirmed molecular diagnosis of PMM2-CDG.
