Article Abstract
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a hereditary disease caused by genes related to motile cilia. We report two male pediatric cases of PCD caused by hemizygous pathogenic variants in the OFD1 centriole and centriolar satellite protein () gene. The variants were NM_003611.3: c.[2789_2793delTAAAA] (p.[Ile930LysfsTer8]) in Case 1 and c.[2632_2635delGAAG] (p.[Glu878LysfsTer9]) in Case 2. Both cases had characteristic recurrent respiratory infections. Neither case had symptoms of oral-facial-digital syndrome type I. We identified a variant (c.2632_2635delGAAG) that has not been previously reported in any case of -PCD.

Hemophilia, an X-linked monogenic disorder, arises from mutations in the or genes, which encode clotting factor VIII (FVIII) or clotting factor IX (FIX), respectively. As a prominent hereditary coagulation disorder, hemophilia is clinically manifested by spontaneous hemorrhagic episodes. Severe cases may progress to complications such as stroke and arthropathy, significantly compromising patients' quality of life.
