Popis: A 24-year-old woman with severe intellectual disability presented with refractory epilepsy since the first day of life. She had global developmental delay and remarkable abnormalities in both primary and secondary teeth (figure). Brain MRI was normal. A whole exome sequencing revealed SLC13A5 compound heterozygous mutations C>T at chr17:6.606.350, p.Gly219Arg, and G>A at chr17:6.590.909, p.Pro505Leu.
