Merosine deficient congenital muscular dystrophy is one of the most common forms of congenital muscular dystrophy. This disease is caused by a primary deficiency or a functionally inactive form of the protein merosin in muscle tissue. The type of inheritance of this disease is autosomal recessive. De novo variants with this type of inheritance are rare, and it is quite possible that the de novo variant may hide a mosaic form in the parent of an affected child. We present a birth family with two affected children who inherited a previously undescribed pathogenic variant c.1755del from their mother and a previously described pathogenic variant c.9253C > T in the LAMA2 gene from their mosaic father. LAMA2 gene mutation analysis was performed by mass parallel sequencing and direct sequencing of genomic DNAs.
