As with other conditions involving seizures, optimal seizure control is beneficial, and awareness of genetic causes may help with medication selection

Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the PCDH19 gene is commonly pathogenic or not. These statistics are base on transcript: NM_001184880.2. Only rare variants are included in the table.

In the table, we include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, Mane Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equals 1. Click the count to view the source variants.

Warning: slight differences between displayed counts and the number of variants in ClinVar may occur, primarily due to (1) the application of a different transcript and/or consequence by our variant effect predictor or (2) differences in clinical significance: we classify Benign/Likely benign variants as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic variants as Likely pathogenic.

Disease
DISEASE: Epileptic encephalopathy, early infantile, 9 (EIEE9) [MIM:300088]: A condition characterized by seizure with onset in infancy or early childhood, cognitive impairment, and delayed development of variable severity in some patients. Additional features include autistic signs and psychosis. The disorder is sex-limited, with the phenotype being restricted to females. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18469813, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19214208, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19752159, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20713952, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20830798, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21053371, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21480887, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21519002, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22050978, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22267240, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25818041, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26993267}.
