Genetic screening by next-generation sequencing identified two heterozygous pathogenic variants in nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyltransferase 1 (NMNAT1) as the molecular cause of the disease: c.439+5G>T and c.299+526_*968dup.This splice variant has never been reported to date, whereas pathogenic duplication has recently been associated with cases displaying an autosomal recessive disorder that includes a severe form of spondylo-epiphyseal dysplasia, sensorineural hearing loss, intellectual disability and LCA (SHILCA), as well as some brain anomalies. This evidence concerns the gene NMNAT1 and sensorineural hearing loss disorder.
