American journal of medical genetics. Part A 2022 NovRhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata (RCDP) are a group of peroxisomal disorders caused by plasmalogen synthesis defects. Patients with RCDP present with rhizomelic short stature, characteristic punctate epiphyseal calcifications, congenital cataracts, severe intellectual disability, seizures, and facial dysmorphism. Pathogenic variants in AGPS result in RCDP type 3 (RCDP3) which is an extremely rare disorder characterized by isolated ADHAPS deficiency. Six patients with RCDP3 have been identified, upto-date. We report two new patients with RCDP3 and their novel variants, c.154dupG (p.Ala52GlyfsTer6) and c.637+1G>A, in the AGPS gene. We also present a review of previously reported RCDP3 patients. © 2022 Wiley Periodicals LLC.
