Preferred Label : Oculocerebral hypopigmentation syndrome of preus;
Type : Other, mainly phenotypes with suspected mendelian basis;
Description : Preus et al. (1983) described 2 sibs, born of consanguineous Italian parents, who
had an oculocerebral hypopigmentation syndrome consisting of growth retardation, dolichocephaly,
cataracts, highly arched palate, small and widely spaced teeth, generalized hypopigmentation,
psychomotor retardation, and hypochromic anemia. Patton et al. (1987) concluded that
this syndrome was distinct from the oculocerebral hypopigmentation syndrome described
by Cross et al. (1967); see 257800. *FIELD* RF 1. Cross, H. E.; McKusick, V. A.; Breen,
