The case of a patient with MIRAGE syndrome with familial dysautonomia-like symptoms

We describe a case of posthumously diagnosed MIRAGE syndrome (Myelodysplasia, Infection, Restriction of growth, Adrenal hypoplasia, Genital problems, and Enteropathy) in a girl with a new pathogenic SAMD9 variant (p.F437S), who was initially considered to have familial dysautonomia (FD)-like disease due to increased levels of catecholamine metabolites. Functional analyses of F437S-SAMD9 were performed, showing characteristics of disease-causing variants. This new SAMD9 variant (p.F437S) also causes MIRAGE syndrome.
