BACKGROUND: Biallelic pathogenic variants in CDH23 can cause Usher syndrome type I (USH1), typically characterized by sensorineural hearing loss, variable vestibular areflexia, and a progressive form of rod-cone dystrophy. While missense variants in CDH23 can cause DFNB12 deafness, other variants can affect the cadherin 23 function, more severely causing Usher syndrome type I D. The main purpose of our study is to describe the genotypes and phenotypes of patients with mild retinitis pigmentosa (RP), including sector RP with two pathogenic variants in CDH23.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Clinical examination included medical history, comprehensive ophthalmologic examination, and multimodal retinal imaging, and in case 1 and 2, full-field electroretinography (ERG). Genetic analysis was performed in all cases, and segregation testing of proband relatives was performed in case 1 and 3.
RESULTS: Three unrelated cases presented with variable clinical phenotype for USH1 and were found to have two pathogenic variants in CDH23, with missense variant, c.5237 G > A: p.Arg1746Gln being common to all. All probands had mild to profound hearing loss. Case 1 and 3 had mild RP with mid peripheral and posterior pole sparing, while case 2 had sector RP. ERG results were consistent with the marked loss of retinal function in both eyes at the level of photoreceptor in case 1 and case 2, with normal peak time in the former.
CONCLUSION: Patients harbouring c.5237 G > A: p.Arg1746Gln variants in CDH23 can present with a mild phenotype including sector RP. This can aid in better genetic counselling and in prognostication.
