Hereditary myoclonus dystonia is a rare movement disorder characterized with combination of myoclonic jerks with mild to moderate dystonia. Mostly caused due to changes in SGCE gene. Author report case of a 3 years old girl with atypical features of lower limb onset, mild dystonia, upper limb and neck myoclonic jerks and younger onset. She was detected to have pathogenic variant of SGCE gene. A diagnosis of myoclonus dystonia should be considered at an early age also like in our case so that treatment is initiated early for better results and improved quality of life and development.

Craniofrontonasal syndrome (CFNS) is a rare X-linked genetic disorder which is characterized by coronal synostosis, widely spaced eyes, a central nasal groove, and various skeletal anomalies. Mutations in the <i>EFNB1</i> gene in Xq13.1 are responsible for familial and sporadic cases. In the present study, we aimed to evaluate the clinical characteristics and molecular results of 4 patients with CFNS. Genomic DNA was extracted from the peripheral blood lymphocytes of all patients and their parents, and Sanger sequencing of the <i>EFNB1</i> gene was performed. A novel <i>EFNB1</i> gene mutation (c.65delG; p.Cys22SerfsTer24) was detected in a newborn who had only dysmorphic facial features and bicornuate uterus. The other 3 patients (2 familial cases and 1 sporadic case) shared the same mutation (c.196C&#x3e;T; p.R66X). However, the clinical features of these patients were highly variable. Additionally, central (meso-axial) polydactyly and deep palmar creases were detected, which have not been previously reported. CFNS has a wide clinical spectrum, but there is no clear genotype-phenotype correlation. However, central (meso-axial) polydactyly and deep palmar creases may be part of the clinical spectrum seen in CFNS. In addition, our findings expand the mutational spectrum in patients with CFNS.
