Title: X-linked mental retardation syndrome: Three brothers with the Brooks-Wisniewski-Brown syndrome

Journal Article · · American Journal of Medical Genetics

  1. Univ. Medical School, Pecs (Hungary)

We report on 3 brothers with growth and mental retardation, bifrontal narrowness, short palpebral fissures, deeply set eyes with entropion, wide bulbous nose, small mouth, myopia, and spastic diplegia. The patients were born to normal and non-consanguineous parents. The similarity of our cases with those recently reported by Brooks et al. supports their suggestion that these patients are representative of a distinct entity. 8 refs., 3 figs., 1 tab.
