Abstract

In the present study, we report a duplication variant found in two families with incontinentia pigmenti, which exhibited a variety of phenotypes in both male and female carriers. Although natural mosaicism through Lyonization, with variably skewed X-inactivation, accounts for the phenotype in females, our study also demonstrates that mosaicism, albeit through a different mechanism, should also be remembered in understanding the phenotypic expression of IKBKG-related disorders in some males.
