Kaufman oculocerebrofacial syndrome: report of two new cases and further delineation.

Two unrelated Mexican girls, aged 14 months and 6 years respectively, with Kaufman oculocerebrofacial syndrome, are reported. Both showed psychomotor retardation, microcephaly, blepharophimosis and delayed growth as the main features; the infant also presented preauricular tags and large clitoris. Comparative analysis with previous cases reveals a heterogeneous syndrome in which the micro-brachycephaly, the mongoloid slanted eyes with different anomalies, the micrognathia and the neonatal respiratory distress are the most typical characteristics of this mental retardation syndrome.
