Two Pediatric Cases of Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia Caused by Loss‐of‐Function Variants in Oral‐Facial‐Digital Syndrome Gene, <i>OFD1</i>

Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a hereditary disease caused by genes related to motile cilia. We report two male pediatric cases of PCD caused by hemizygous pathogenic variants in the OFD1 centriole and centriolar satellite protein (<i>OFD1</i>) gene. The variants were NM_003611.3: c.[2789_2793delTAAAA] (p.[Ile930LysfsTer8]) in Case 1 and c.[2632_2635delGAAG] (p.[Glu878LysfsTer9]) in Case 2. Both cases had characteristic recurrent respiratory infections. Neither case had symptoms of oral-facial-digital syndrome type I. We identified a variant (c.2632_2635delGAAG) that has not been previously reported in any case of <i>OFD1</i>-PCD.
