A high prevalence of rare (mainly de novo) genetic variants in individuals with severe and sporadic DLD is revealed, and extensive molecular overlap with other neurodevelopmental disorders is demonstrated.

This case underscores that the genetic and neuropsychological identification of a neurodevelopmental disorder, together with the integration of tailored psychomotor interventions and contextual adaptations, can improve psychiatric management and daily functioning, and mitigate behavioral decline in adulthood, even following a prolonged diagnostic delay.

An integrative study combining Mendelian genetics, clinical and association studies, and animal and molecular modeling supports variants in ELAVL2 as a cause of a neurodevelopmental disorder, with haploinsufficiency as the disease mechanism, and identifies crucial roles of ELAVL2 in neuronal function, cognition, and behavior.
