Case report of the first molecular diagnosis of Stickler syndrome with a pathogenic COL2A1 variant in a Mongolia family

Abstract Background Stickler syndrome is a group of connective tissue disorders that can affect eye (myopia, cataract, and retinal detachment), skeleton (spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia and precocious arthritis), craniofacies (midfacial under development and cleft palate), and inner ear (conductive and...
