BACKGROUND: Macrocephaly can be a component manifestation of several monogenic conditions, in association with intellectual disability/developmental delay (ID/DD) behaviour abnormalities, including autism spectrum disorders (ASD), and variable additional features. On the other hand, idiopathic ASD can present with developmental delay and macrocephaly.

METHODS: We carried out a retrospective analysis of a cohort of 78 patients who were tested from February 2017 to December 2024 by high-throughput sequencing of a panel of 27 genes (ABCC9, AKT1, AKT2, AKT3, BRWD3, DIS3L2, DNMT3A, EZH2, GPC3, GPC4, HERC1, MED12, MTOR, NFIA, NFIX, NSD1, PDGFRB, PIK3CA, PIK3R1, PIK3R2, PPP2R1A, PPP2R5D, PTEN, RAB39B, RNF135, SETD2, and TBC1D7) because of neurodevelopmental impairment, including ID/DD, ASD/behaviour abnormalities associated with macrocephaly, mimicking to a large extent idiopathic ASD.

RESULTS: Pathogenic variants leading to the diagnosis of monogenic conditions were detected in 22 patients (28%), including NSD1 (2), PTEN (16), and PPP2R5D (4). Distinctive of the PTEN-associated phenotype were true macrocephaly (100%), ASD or behaviour abnormalities (92%), mild/borderline ID (79%), and no facial dysmorphisms. Typical of the PPP2R5D-associated phenotype were relative macrocephaly (75%), a few unspecific peculiar facial characteristics (50%), and a more variable presentation of the neurodevelopmental phenotype.

CONCLUSIONS: Pathogenic variants in PTEN and PPP2R5D are the most recurrent gene mutations in a patient-oriented procedure for the genetic diagnosis of apparently idiopathic ASD and behaviour abnormalities associated with macrocephaly. The clinical applicability of the presented diagnostic strategy is discussed.
