Neuroradiological abnormalities, including ventriculomegaly, hypoplasia of the corpus callosum, and a decreased white matter volume, are observed in many individuals. Most individuals have the same highly recurrent single base insertion (n.64_65insT) in\n                    <jats:italic>RNU4\u20102<\/jats:italic>\n                    .\n                    <jats:italic>RNU4\u20102<\/jats:italic>\n                    encodes U4 small nuclear RNA, which is a critical component of the U4\/U6.U5 tri\u2010snRNP complex of the major spliceosome. We reviewed exome sequencing and genome sequencing data from previous patients with neurodevelopmental disorders that matched the clinical features of ReNU syndrome and performed a hotspot analysis using the Sanger method. A recurrent variant in\n                    <jats:italic>RNU4\u20102<\/jats:italic>\n                    was identified in eight patients, while the rare variant, n.66A&gt;G, was detected in one patient. Nine patients aged between 3 and 29\u2009years all showed severe developmental delay and\/or intellectual disability. Independent walking was achieved by five patients. In six patients, meaningful words had not been acquired, even after the age of 5\u2009years. All patients showed a distinctive pattern of dysmorphic features, including hooded upper eyelids, full cheeks, a tented philtrum, and a mouth constantly slightly open with an everted lower lip vermilion. All patients had neuroradiological abnormalities. The identification of nine patients at a single institution reaffirmed that ReNU syndrome is an important cause of ID. ReNU syndrome is considered a clinically recognizable syndrome. If clinically suspected, it is reasonable to examine the 18\u2010base pair region using the Sanger method.\n
