A family with Möbius syndrome.
A classic Möbius syndrome, including bilateral abducens-facial paralysis, was found in a newborn boy. At least 15 maternal relatives showed partial features of the syndrome. As potential features of Möbius syndrome also were found in the father's side of the family, a recessive mode of inheritance is suggested.
