title: Apparently new MCA/MR syndrome in sibs with cleft lip and palate and other facial, eye, heart, and intestinal anomalies.
abstract: We report on a sister and brother with severe mental retardation, bulbous tip of the nose, long columella, cleft lip and palate, heart and intestinal anomalies, and growth retardation. This appears to be a previously unreported, autosomal recessive condition, given high resolution prometaphase chromosomes are normal.
