RESUMEN
Transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) mutations are known to cause inherited axonal neuropathies and skeletal dysplasia. TRPV4 mutations are associated with distal hereditary motor neuropathies (dHMN), which distinctly involve motor deficits. A 1 ½-year-old boy presented at the clinic with diminished lower limb movement and ambulatory limitations. The patient was born with bilateral knee arthrogryposis and bilateral talipes equinovarus, which required surgical intervention. A gross neurologic exam was unremarkable, with normal vision and hearing. A bone survey radiograph showed no evidence of skeletal dysplasia. Genetic tests revealed a homozygous mutation in the TRPV4 gene (c.281C>T; p.S94L), leading to the diagnosis of congenital spinal muscular atrophy and arthrogryposis (CSMAA). Hence, this presents the first case of CSMAA caused by a TRPV4 mutation (p.S94L), with a different presentation from the one previously described in the literature, thus broadening the phenotypic variability and clinical spectrum of TRPV4 mutations.
