The cerebro-hepato-renal (Zellweger's) syndrome: report of four cases.

Four cases of cerebro-hepato-renal syndrome are described. Radiographic findings of scimitar-shaped calcifications of the patellae and stippled cartilage califications have previously been described. We noted calcifications in the area of the greater trochanters in 2 of our patients, and bell-shaped thoraces in all patients. One of our patients is the longest survivor of the children affected by this syndrome.
