In recent years, certain children have been found to carry homozygous variations of the <jats:italic>EEF1D<\/jats:italic> gene, leading to autosomal recessive intellectual disability. However, the pathogenicity of compound heterozygous variations in this gene remains largely unknown.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Trio whole\u2010exome sequencing and copy number variation sequencing were done for the genetic etiological diagnosis of a 3\u2010year and 11\u2010month\u2010old Chinese boy who presented with brachycephaly, severe to profound global developmental delay, and hypotonia in the lower limbs.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>In this case, compound heterozygous variants of the <jats:italic>EEF1D<\/jats:italic> gene were found in the child through trio whole\u2010exome sequencing; one was a splice variant (NM_032378.6:c.1905+1G&gt;A) inherited from his father, and the other was a nonsense variant (NM_032378.6:c.676C&gt;T) inherited from his mother. The nonsense variant leads to the production of a premature termination (p.Gln226*). These variations have the ability to explain the clinical phenotypes of the child.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Our study expands the variation spectrum and provides compelling evidence for <jats:italic>EEF1D<\/jats:italic> as a candidate gene for autosomal recessive intellectual disability.
