Heterozygous variants associated with isolated GnRH deficiency with or without anosmia (Kallman syndrome like). More severe phenotype with biallelic SEMA3A variants including postnatal short stature and congenital heart defects in 3/3 published, unrelated individuals.

PMID 33369061 Gileta et al 2021 - report x1 patient. Female proband was compound heterozygote for a nonsense variant and a multiexonic deletion of SEMA3A. Presents with postnatal short stature, congenital cardiac anomalies, dysmorphic features, hypogonadotrophic hypogonadism and anosmia.

PMID 28075028 Baumann et al 2017 - report x1 patient. Homozygous LoF variants identified in a proband from a consanguineous Turkish family. Noted at birth to have a high-positioned scapulae, deformed ribs and a lateral clavicular hook. The patient also had upper/lower limb contractures and aberrant right subclavian artery. Mild facial dysmorphism, micropenis and hypogonadotrophic hypogonadism also noted in the first week of life. Postnatal short stature (length 50cm at term birth)

PMID 24124006 Hofmann et al 2013 - first reported biallelic variants in a proband with postnatal short stature, skeletal anomalies of the thorax, congenital heart
defect and camptodactyly
