In a 7-year-old girl, a pseudoexon in PHEX intron 17 was found, associated with a de novo deep intronic variant (c.1768 + 173A &amp;gt; G) that activated a cryptic splice donor site. Finally, an 84\u2005bp pseudoexon in PHEX intron 21 caused by a recurrent de novo deep intronic variant (c.2147 + 1197A &amp;gt; G) was identified in an 11-year-old girl.<\/jats:p>\n
