[The fetal alcoholic syndrome. A case report on two siblings].
Two children of a mother suffering from chronic overindulgence in alcohol are reported. Both of them showed considerable signs of what Jones et al. (1973) called the fetal alcoholic syndrome. Delay in statokinetic, physical and mental development and craniofacial dysmorphism are prominent in the clinical picture. A direct toxis effect of the alcohol on the fetus is assumed to be the cause.
