Our review of previously reported cases with TCF4 mutations and deletions showed that all patients with Pitt-Hopkins syndrome reported to date have severe psychomotor retardation, the onsets of seizures and hyperventilation episodes are limited to the first decade in most reported patients with Pitt-Hopkins syndrome, hyperventilation episodes are more common than seizures and are seen in the oldest patients, and individuals with missense TCF4 mutations are more likely to develop seizures.
