Abstract
A 4-year-old girl is reported with a neonatally apparent progeroid syndrome. Parenteral consanguinity indicates autosomal recessive inheritance. Psychomotor development and physical growth are severely deficient. Mainly characterized by congenital absence of subcutaneous fat tissue, this child is very similar to four patients reported earlier and recognized as representing a newly delineated clinical entity, called here the Wiedemann-Rautenstrauch or neonatal progeroid syndrome.Entities:
