IGF1R gene mutations have been associated with varying degrees of intrauterine and postnatal growth retardation, as well as microcephaly. Both autosomal-dominant and autosomal-recessive inheritance patterns have been reported. This study aimed to analyze the IGF1R gene in children with growth impairment using whole-exome sequencing (WES) and assess the clinical features with the autosomal-dominant and autosomal-recessive models.
