Abstract
Mutations in the RHOBTB2 gene (MIM:607352) have recently been associated with neurodevelopmental abnormalities, infantile-onsetepileptic encephalopathy with various seizure types, intellectual dis-abilities, postnatal microcephaly with minor facial dysmorphia, andchoreic or dystonic syndromes of paroxysmal nature [1,2]. Here we present a patient with a recurrent RHOBTB2 mutation who had severe paroxysmal choreodystonia and aplasia cutis congenita(ACC), a feature that has not yet been described in association with RHOBTB2 variants, but no epilepsy.
