Popis:	The specialty of Pediatric Neurology emerged during the 20th century, a period in which many neurologists played significant roles in revolutionizing this field. Two acclaimed pediatric neurologists of Hispanic origin, Drs Manual Gomez and Arturo Lopez-Hernandez, made substantial contributions to the literature on pediatric neurology. One of their remarkable contributions was their discovery of a new, rare neurocutaneous syndrome with variable phenotype, the Gomez-Lopez–Hernandez syndrome (GLHS). Here, we describe the current understanding of GLHS and the historical background of how 2 celebrated Hispanic pediatric neurologists discovered this rare, sporadic syndrome during a time when there was a limited representation of minorities in the medical profession.
