Trichothiodystrophy (TTD) is caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous variants in genes associated with DNA repair. The ERCC2 gene encoded a protein, XPD, that is a subunit of the general transcription factor TFIIH and important in both DNA repair and transcription. Disease‐causing variants in ERCC2 can partially inactivate these activities, giving rise to symptoms seen in TTD, Cockayne syndrome (CS) and xeroderma pigmentosa (XP). Although generalized cerebral white matter abnormalities is reported in TTD, myelination disorders specifically linked to ERCC2 gene variants are exceptionally uncommon. Here, we introduce a thorough investigation of a patient exhibiting classic TTD symptoms alongside progressive cerebral hypomyelination with ERCC2 variants.
