Preferred Label : Lipodystrophy, generalized, with impaired intellectual development, deafness, short
stature, and slender bones;
Type : Phenotype or locus, molecular basis unknown;
Alternative titles and symbols : Lipodystrophy, generalized, with mental retardation, deafness, short stature, and
slender bones;
Description : Rajab et al. (2003) presented 3 patients with congenital generalized lipodystrophy,
sensorineural deafness, low birth weight, short stature, delayed cognitive development,
and progressive bone changes characterized by overtubulation and rarefaction of long
bones with dense metaphyseal striations occurring in adolescence. No abnormalities
of lipid or carbohydrate metabolism, hepatosplenomegaly, acanthosis nigricans, or
hirsutism were found. Rajab et al. (2003) suggested that the occurrence in sibs born
to consanguineous parents and the observation of a third patient from the same Omani
tribal unit suggested autosomal recessive inheritance. *FIELD* RF 1. Rajab, A.; Khaburi,
