In 1968, R. J. Pollitt and colleagues described a syndrome characterized by abnormally brittle, sulphur-deficient hair (trichothiodystrophy), intellectual disability (ID) and growth retardation. One of the two siblings originally described by the above authors has recently been re-assessed by the present authors following a referral for advice about ritualistic behaviours. Her current clinical features are described, and the literature concerning trichothiodystrophy and ID is summarized.
