We report on a 10 1/2-years-old patient with clinical manifestations of Peters'-Plus syndrome. The patient had Peters' anomaly, slightly arched eyebrows, long eyelashes, a broad nasal tip; malformed and prominent ears, cleft lip and palate, brachydactyly, fingertip pads, severe growth deficiency, and mild mental retardation. Peters' anomaly is a defect of the anterior chamber of the eye, including central corneal opacity, thinning of the posterior aspect of the cornea and iridolenticulocorneal adhesions. Peters'-Plus syndrome is a disorder in which patients with Peters' anomaly are also found to have short stature, brachymedia, abnormal ears, cleft lip and palate, and mental retardation. Our patient showed Peters'-Plus syndrome associated with some clinical manifestations of the Kabuki make-up syndrome.

KBG syndrome is a rare, autosomal dominant disorder caused by mutations or deletions leading to haploinsufficiency for the Ankrin Repeating Domain-Containing protein 11 (ANKRD11) at chromosome 16q24.3. Kabuki syndrome is caused by mutations or deletions of lysine (K)-specific methyltransferase 2D (KMT2D) and lysine-specific methylase 6A (KDM6A). We report on a male with developmental delays, cleft palate, craniofacial dysmorphism, hypotonia, and central nervous system anomalies including diminished white matter with thinning of the corpus callosum. Exome sequencing revealed a de novo mutation in ANKRD11, c.2606_2608delAGA, predicting p.Lys869del and an additional, de novo mutation, c.2353T>C, predicting p.Tyr785His in KDM1A, a gene not previously associated with a human phenotype. We describe this child as the first report of a deleterious sequence variant in KDM1A and hypothesize that his phenotype resulted from the combined effect of both mutations.
