Kaufman oculocerebrofacial syndrome (KOS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by severe mental retardation, microcephaly, long narrow face, ocular anomalies, and long thin hands and feet. To our knowledge only 8 cases have been reported so far, diagnosed at a mean age of 10 years. We report on a girl who was diagnosed at 15 years. Further phenotypic delineation is needed to improve diagnosis of this syndrome early in life.
考夫曼眼脑面综合征(KOS)是一种罕见的常染色体隐性疾病,其特征为严重智力发育迟缓、小头畸形、长窄脸、眼部异常以及细长的手脚。据我们所知,迄今为止仅报告了8例,平均诊断年龄为10岁。我们报告了一名15岁时被诊断出该病的女孩。需要进一步明确表型以在生命早期改善该综合征的诊断。
