A Verrips1, J A Hiel, F J Gabreëls, P Wesseling, J J Rotteveel.   

Abstract

We report 2 siblings with the Aicardi-Goutières syndrome (encephalopathy, basal ganglia calcifications, and persistent cerebrospinal fluid pleiocytosis). The eldest sibling is severely retarded; his younger brother has only mild, slowly progressive neurological deficits. To our knowledge, such a striking difference in clinical expression has not been reported previously.
