Popis: Two brothers (7 years of age and 8 months respectively) are reported. They both suffered from a combination of severe microcephaly, spastic tetraplegia, clonic epileptic fits, absent abdominal cutaneous reflexes and severe mental retardation. This syndrome shows an X-chromosomal mode of inheritance. Dermatoglyphic patterns were characteristic. There was no change in aminoacids in CSF and the birth weight was high (4000g, in contrast to the cases described by Warkany et al.).
