Here we report a novel mosaic variant in SMC1A identified in the buccal swab DNA of a patient with a mild CdLS phenotype. Our patient presented with global developmental delay, dysmorphic features, microcephaly, and short stature, with no limb defect. Face2Gene, a digital tool that analyzes facial morphology, demonstrated a 97% match between our patient and the CdLS gestalt. An initial next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based CdLS panel test, including NIPBL, HDAC8, RAD21, SMC1A, and SMC3, completed using DNA isolated from leukocytes, was negative, and subsequent trio exome sequencing was nondiagnostic. The exome identified biallelic variants of uncertain significance in a candidate gene, NSMCE2 In the pursuit of a molecular diagnosis, a second NGS-based CdLS panel test was ordered on a buccal swab specimen and a novel variant, c.793_795delGAG (p.Glu265del) in SMC1A, was detected at 60% mosaicism. Retrospective analysis of the former panel and exome data revealed the SMC1A variant at 4% and 2%, respectively, both far below standard reporting thresholds. Given that mosaicism has been frequently reported in CdLS, we suggest selecting a different tissue for testing in clinically suspected CdLS cases, even after negative molecular results via blood specimen.Wilson disease is a medically actionable rare autosomal recessive disorder of defective copper excretion caused by mutations in ATP7B, one of two highly evolutionarily conserved copper-transporting ATPases. Hundreds of disease-causing variants in ATP7B have been reported to public databases; more than half of these are missense changes, and a significant proportion are presumed unequivocal loss-of-function variants (nonsense, frameshift, and canonical splice site)
