Description : Kohlschutter-Tonz syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by severe
global developmental delay, early-onset intractable seizures, spasticity, and amelogenesis
imperfecta affecting both primary and secondary teeth and causing yellow or brown
discoloration of the teeth. Although the phenotype is consistent, there is variability.
Intellectual disability is related to the severity of seizures, and the disorder can
thus be considered an epileptic encephalopathy. Some infants show normal development
until seizure onset, whereas others are delayed from birth. The most severely affected
individuals have profound mental retardation, never acquire speech, and become bedridden
early in life (summary by Schossig et al., 2012 and Mory et al., 2012).;
Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;
