RESUMO
Talipes equinovarus, atrial septal defect, Robin sequence and persistent left superior vena cava (TARP) syndrome is a congenital disease caused by mutations in the RBBM10 gene. It has a low prevalence and a high rate of mortality in the neonatal stage. In this case report, we present a case of a 32-week gestational age preterm newborn with a prenatal diagnosis of intrauterine growth restriction, with a persistent left superior vena cava, interatrial communication and a horseshoe kidney. Additionally, postnatal optic nerve atrophy was diagnosed. By using exome sequencing, the pathogenic variant c.1877del; p.his626Lefus*78 was identified in the RMB10 gene. Due to a lack of reports in the medical literature, the phenotype has not fully been described. Here, we report on a patient with TARP syndrome and a previously unreported mutation, c.1877del; p.his627Leufs*78, which is predicted to generate a truncated and/or protein decay of the RBM10 transcript.

Ebstein anomaly is a congenital heart defect with a low prevalence and high mortality in the early stages of life. In medical literature, there is no reported association between Ebstein anomaly and cri du chat syndrome. Here, we report the case of a full-term newborn with a low weight for his age and who had a prenatal diagnosis of Ebstein anomaly and a postnatal diagnosis of cri du chat syndrome and 20q duplication detected on array CGH. The patient required medical treatment with inotropic support, high-frequency ventilation and nitric oxide, with an adequate response. Surgical intervention was not needed.
