Ocular manifestations of Nabais Sa-de Vries Syndrome type 1.

Nabais Sa-de Vries syndrome (NSDVS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder first described in 2020. The syndrome is caused by de novo missense mutations in speckle-type pox virus and zinc finger protein (SPOP) on chromosome 17q21. The syndrome is divided into two forms (NSDVS Type 1 and NSDVS Type 2) based on the consequence of the mutation involved. In this report, we present the clinical features in a young male patient with suspected NSDVS1 and summarize the features of the reported affected individuals thus far, with a focus on the ophthalmic manifestations. Similar to other individuals with NSDVS1, he had features of congenital microcephaly, developmental delay, behavioral abnormalities, hearing loss, and facial dysmorphisms. Ocular and periorbital manifestations in this patient included thick high-arched eyebrows, mild synophrys, long eyelashes, ptosis, and downslanting palpebral fissures; comparable to features described in other individuals with NSDVS1. In addition, this patient had esotropia that required multiple strabismus surgeries and a refractive error that required the use of corrective lenses. Although the consequences of specific mutations may result in a portion of the phenotypic differences between NSDVS1 and NSDVS2, the ophthalmic abnormalities between the two types may have significant overlap not explained by these bidirectional mutational effects.
