Neurological complications in one of a sibpair with aplasia cutis congenita.
We describe two sibs with aplasia cutis congenita, one of whom has developed moya-moya disease resulting in severe physical handicap and mental retardation. The presence of aplasia cutis congenita should at least alert the clinicians to the possibility of a co-existing central nervous system lesion.
