Preferred Label : Macdermot-winter syndrome;
Type : Other, mainly phenotypes with suspected mendelian basis;
Description : MacDermot and Winter (1989) described a seemingly 'new' syndrome with facial anomalies,
microcephaly, hypoplastic genitalia, and failure of psychomotor development. The 2
brothers were from a consanguineous Moslem family. They showed prenatal onset of growth
deficiency and had convulsions from birth. Atypical anomalies consisted of a prominent
glabella, arched eyebrows, a low upswept frontal hairline, large posteriorly rotated
ears with overfolded upper helices, partial camptodactyly, and wide-spaced nipples.
Death occurred at 21 days and 7 months, respectively. Postmortem examination showed
dilated cerebral ventricles and hydronephrosis. *FIELD* RF 1. MacDermot, K. D.; Winter,
