RESUMO
NFIB (Nuclear Factor I B) haploinsufficiency has recently been identified as a cause of intellectual disability and macrocephaly. Here we describe two patients with pathogenic variants in NFIB. The first is a 6-year-old Latino male with developmental delays, mild hypotonia, facial anomalies, and brain magnetic resonance imaging findings comprising mild thinning of the corpus callosum, with more marked thinning of the splenium and blunting of the rostrum and cavum septum pellucidum. Exome sequencing identified a previously described de novo variant in NFIB, c.265C>T, predicting p.Arg89Ter. The second is a 5-year-old Latino male with developmental delays, hypotonia, dysmorphic features, a preauricular tag and pit, a small ventricular septal defect, and brain magnetic resonance imaging findings including a dysmorphic corpus callosum and a small posterior fossa. A single nucleotide polymorphism microarray identified a 92 kb interstitial deletion at 9p23 including several exons of NFIB and no other known genes. Our two patients add to the knowledge of this rare condition through our addition of new brain MRI findings and dysmorphic features. Additionally, these are the first known Latino patients to be described with NFIB haploinsufficiency, expanding our understanding of the associated facial features in diverse populations. Further data are needed to determine genotype-phenotype relationships for NFIB.
