Hypomyelination and congenital cataract is a recently reported autosomal recessive white matter disorder characterized by hypomyelination of the central and peripheral nervous systems, progressive neurological impairment and congenital cataract and caused by mutations in gene DRCTNNB1A.

The clinical phenotypes described for five patients broaden the phenotype of the disease and indicate that congenital cataract is not an essential criterion for differential diagnosis.
