Cerebral malformation, seizures, hypertrichosis, distinct face, claw hands, and overlapping fingers in sibs of both sexes.

We report on sibs of both sexes with a multiple malformation syndrome of cerebral malformation, seizures, hypertrichosis, distinct face, claw hands, and overlapping fingers. The older boy died in a tonic extension spasm at age 4 months. When discharged, the younger girl was 3.5 months old. This appears to be an autosomal recessive syndrome which to our knowledge has not been described before.
