Microcephaly, lymphedema, and chorioretinal dysplasia: report of two additional cases

Am J Med Genet. 1994 Nov 1;53(2):99-101. doi: 10.1002/ajmg.1320530202.

Abstract

In recent years, several patients with microcephaly, lymphedema and chorioretinal dysplasia have been described. We have studied two additional patients with similar findings. The question of whether microcephaly with lymphedema and microcephaly with chorioretinal dysplasia and lymphedema are distinct entities remains unanswered. Identification of other patients in the future may provide additional information.
