title: Silver-Russell syndrome. A family with symmetric and asymmetric siblings.
abstract: Two siblings with Silver-Russell syndrome (SRS) were studied. Only one child had asymmetry. To our knowledge, this is the first report of the existence of both the "Silver" and "Russell" variants in a nuclear family, and provides additional evidence for considering SRS to be a single syndrome with a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations.
