Co ‐occurrence of a novel PDGFRB variant and likely pathogenic variant in CASR in an individual with extensive intracranial calcifications and hypocalcaemia

Key Clinical Message This case report describes an individual with brain calcifications, cognitive decline, motor dysfunction, and hypocalcaemia. Exome sequencing revealed a previously reported variant in the CASR gene and a variant of uncertain significance in PDGFRB. The clinical phenotype is likely explained by the CASR variant, but we discuss how the PDGFRB variant could also participate in the phenotype. A novel case of brain calcifications with cognitive decline, motor dysfunction, and hypocalcaemia. Exome sequencing revealed a variant in the CASR gene and a variant in PDGFRB. The phenotype aligns closer to a CASR, we discuss how the PDGFRB variant could also participate in the phenotype.
