- 1 healthy sibling, French parents
*** Patient 1
- pregnancy, birth N
- age ??
- neonatal: poor suckling
- langage lay + fine motor difficulties
- overlapping of left toes, mild hypertonia of lower limbs, mild dysmorphic features with bilateral epicanthus and hooded eyelids.
- no epilepsy
- metabolic, ophtalmologic, hearing N
- MRI : bilateral and symmetric hypersignal of dentate nucleus in T2, without iron deposition
*** Patient 2 = sister
- pregnancy, birth N
- language delay, learning difficulties
- round face, thick hair, short forehead and a right preaurical fistula.
- hypermetropia and astigmatism
- 12 years, no MRI
