ARID1B-related disorders constitute a clinical continuum, from classic Coffin-Siris syndrome to intellectual disability (ID) with or without nonspecific dysmorphic features. Here, we describe an 11-year-old boy with an ARID1B mutation whose phenotype changed from severe developmental delay and ID to a complex neurodevelopmental disorder with multidimensional impairments, including normal intelligence despite heterogeneous IQ scores, severe motor coordination disorder, oral language disorder and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. Phenotypic changes occurred after early intensive remediation and paralleled the normalization of myelination impairments, as evidenced by early brain imaging. WHAT THIS PAPER ADDS?: This report describes a 10-year multidisciplinary follow-up of a child with an ARID1B mutation who received early intensive remediation and whose phenotype changed during development. Clinical improvement paralleled the normalization of myelination impairments. This case supports a dimensional approach for complex neurodevelopmental disorders.
