It is characterized by mental retardation, short stature, head and facial abnormalities, skeletal anomalies and developmental delays. The signs and symptoms vary in different people. We report a 14-year-old male patient, diagnosed with CLS based on his clinical features. Genetic testing revealed a de novo mutation in ribosomal protein S6 kinase alpha-3 (RPS6KA3) gene (c.2185C>T; p. Arg729Trp). This is the first molecularly confirmed case report of a patient with CLS from Iran. }, URL = {http://irj.uswr.ac.ir/article-1-888-en.html}, eprint = {http://irj.uswr.ac.ir/article-1-888-en.pdf}, journal = {Iranian Rehabilitation Journal}, doi = {10.32598/irj.16.3.325}, year = {2018} }
