Abstract
We report on 2 girls with a terminal deletion of the short arm of chromosome X. They had microphthalmia, cloudy corneae, mild linear skin lesions, and agenesis of corpus callosum. A comparison of clinical and cytogenetic findings in similar cases suggested that the critical genes for the Goltz and Aicardi syndromes might be contiguous in the region Xp22.31.
