Abstract Background Epilepsy with intellectual disability limited to females (Epileptic encephalopathy, early infantile, 9; EIEE9) is a rare early infantile epileptic encephalopathy characterized by an unusual X-linked inheritance: females with heterozygous mutations are affected, while hemizygous males are not. Case presentation We describe the clinical and molecular characteristics of 2 Russian patients with EIEE9 (females, ages 3 years and 7 years). In these patients seizures developed at the age of 3 years. Additionally, for our patients and for cases described in the literature we searched for a possible relationship between the type and localization of the mutation and the EIEE9 clinical phenotype. Conclusions We identified two novel PCDH19 mutations in EIEE9 patients: a missense mutation in exon 1 (c.1236C > A, p.Asp412Glu) and a frameshift in exon 3 (c.2386_2387insGTCT, p.Thr796fs). We conclude that the age of seizure onset and the presence of intellectual disability may depend not on the type and localization of PCDH19 mutations, but on the X-inactivation status. The study also highlights the need to screen for EIEE9 among young female epilepsy patients. |
