Abstrakt: Chanarin-Dorfman syndrome is an autosomal recessively inherited disorder characterized by ichthyosis, sensorineural hearing loss, and hepatic dysfunction. We report on a 60-year-old female of Venezuelan descent who presented with congenital ichthyosis, progressive sensorineural hearing loss, and liver cirrhosis. We identify a heterozygous copy number deletion involving exon 1 and another heterozygous deletion involving exon 3 of the ABHD5 gene. Exon 2 is preserved. Both deletions were confirmed with RT-PCR. RNAseq from peripheral blood shows a reduction of ABHD5 expression overall and an absence of exon 3 expression, confirming the deleterious effects of the identified deletions. We present exonic deletions as a potentially common type of ABHD5 variation.
