Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Evaluation of diagnostic whole exome sequencing in patients with syndromic or isolated severe intellectual disability without a molecular diagnostic, with suspected autosomal recessive inheritance, allowing accurate genetic counseling in this high risk of recurrence group of diseases

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Clinical diagnosis of syndromic or isolated severe intellectual disability (IQ \<50) without a molecular diagnosis
* Recurrence in siblings (multiplex families) suggesting autosomal recessive inheritance (with or without parental consanguinity) or sporadic cases from a consanguineous union
* Conventional genetic tests performed (including array-CGH) and MRI/CT-scan available
* DNA samples from parents and from both unaffected or affected siblings available, for parental segregation and confirmation of candidate variations identified.
* Availability of a signed informed consent
* To be affiliated or beneficiary of French social security/healthcare system

Exclusion Criteria

* Parents in the exclusion period of another study or as provided by the national register of volunteers
* High-probability diagnostic hypothesis for which a molecular test is available at lower cost than exome sequencing
