    Homozygous Pathogenic MYH3 Variants Associated With Arthrogryposis and Lingual Dystonia

    by Charlotte Mouraux, Claire Fouquet, Keith Durkin, Vinciane Dideberg, Saskia Bulk, David Aktan, Maria Artesi, Frédérique Depierreux

    Introduction: Heterozygous pathogenic variants in MYH3 are known to be responsible for distal arthrogryposis. Case report: We report a consanguineous family of four children with two likely pathogenic MYH3 homozygous variants associated with complex movement disorders, especially prominent lingual dystonia, along with skeletal abnormalities. The two variants in MYH3 (c.3445G>A and c.4760T>C) have already been described in patients with congenital arthrogryposis. No other significant variation was found using long-read whole genome sequencing. Discussion: We have extended the phenotype of MYH3-associated arthrogryposis to include movement disorders, which may have been underdiagnosed to date. Highlights This article extends the phenotype of MYH3-associated arthrogryposis to include movement disorders, illustrating a family of four children presenting MYH3 skeletal disorders and lingual dystonia. Two homozygous likely pathogenic variants have been identified in the four sibs and appear to be causative for both skeletal and neurological phenotypes.
