title: The Floating-Harbor syndrome: two affected siblings in a family.
abstract: In this report we describe two siblings with pre- and postnatal growth retardation and clinical signs and symptoms most compatible with the diagnosis of Floating-Harbor syndrome. The oldest sibling, a girl, died in the first year of life from recurrent infections. The younger sibling, a male, is now 16.5 years old and mildly mentally retarded.
