case_images: The clinical phenotypes of the patient. The MRI testing identified the overt carcass dysplasia (A), bilateral forehead subarachnoid space widening (B), right iliac choroidal fissure cyst (C), large cisterna magna (D), and cerebellar sulcus widening (E).

case_images: Figure S1). Furthermore, the patient cannot walk independently. Brain MRI revealed overt carcass dysplasia (Figure 1A), bilateral forehead subarachnoid space widening (Figure 1B), right iliac choroidal fissure cyst (Figure 1C), large cisterna magna (Figure 1D), and cerebellar sulcus widening (Figure 1E).
case_images: The SNP array identified a 7q35-7q36.3 (chr7:147,493,985-156,774,460) deletion in the patient.
