Core Tip Practice-changing diagnostic lesson: In children with early-onset nystagmus, hypotonia, and developmental delay-including hypomyelination syndrome-should be considered. When whole-exome sequencing is nondiagnostic, the appearance of new affected relatives or evolving new phenotype should trigger reanalysis using broader, iteratively refined human phenotype ontology terms, integrated with the suspected inheritance pattern. This strategy improves variant interpretation, increases diagnostic yield, and can ultimately end the diagnostic odyssey.
