We have successfully identified the most likely cause for a rare autosomal recessive disorder with only one case. Our clinicopathologic and genomic findings for the MYH3-related recessively inherited form of non-syndromic cleft palate are consistent with those recently reported by Vaiman et al. (2022) (OMIA002590-9913). Interestingly, the 2-year-old Limousine female in our study appears to be the oldest known animal with MYH3-associated non-syndromic palatoschisis. According to Vaiman et al. (2022), life expectancy is short, with most animals euthanized in the first month of life. In addition, the variant allele frequency was found to be lower in the current Swiss population compared with the French Limousine (2.4%).
