Recently, heterozygous mutations in the KMT2E gene have been identified as a cause of a unique neurodevelopmental disorder with variable combination of global developmental delay or isolated speech delay, intellectual disability, autistic features, and seizures.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Methods\u2003Here, we present two new cases of KMT2E mutation-associated neurodevelopmental disorder in a 4-year-old girl and 5-year-old boy. We also performed a pooled review of the previously published cases of KMT2E-related neurodevelopmental disorder. Articles were identified through search engines using appropriate search terms.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Results\u2003Along with the presented 2 cases, 40 cases were analyzed. Out of them, 30, 6, and 4 children had protein-truncating mutations, missense mutations, and copy number variants, respectively. The common features were global developmental delay (97%) followed by macrocephaly (35%), seizures (30%), and autism (25%). Children with missense variants had severe phenotype, with microcephaly, profound developmental delay, and increased frequency of seizures. Neuroimaging revealed nonspecific changes, including cerebral white matter signal abnormalities.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Conclusion\u2003KMT2E-related neurodevelopmental disorder remains one of the clinical differentials in children with global developmental delay and\/or autistic features\/seizure. With the reporting of more cases in the future, the already heterogeneous clinical spectrum of this disease is likely to be widened.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0040-1715629","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,10,28]],"date-time":"2020-10-28T03:02:06Z","timestamp":1603854126000},"page":"098-104","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Clinical
