SRRM2-related neurodevelopmental disorder is a recently described genetic diagnosis caused by loss-of-function variants in SRRM2. In order to understand the clinical spectrum of SRRM2-related neurodevelopmental disorder, we performed a retrospective exome data and clinical chart review at a single tertiary children's hospital, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP). Among approximately 3100 clinical exome sequencing cases performed at CHOP, we identified three patients with SRRM2 loss-of-function pathogenic variants, in addition to one patient previously described in the literature. Common clinical features include developmental delay, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, macrocephaly, hypotonia, gastroesophageal reflux, overweight/obesity, and autism. While developmental disabilities are commonly seen in all individuals with SRRM2 variants, the degree of developmental delay and intellectual disability is variable. Our data suggest that SRRM2-related neurodevelopmental disorder can be identified in 0.3% of individuals with developmental disabilities receiving exome sequencing.
