We present an infant with characteristic findings and discuss related conditions, especially the Seckel syndrome. 2012-09-26T12:54:26.418Z ]]> Schinzel-Giedion syndrome and congenital megacalyces http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:21614 The Schinzel-Giedion syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive condition with typical facies, skeletal manifestations and congenital hydronephrosis. We report an infant with characteristic findings who had bilateral congenital megacalyces. Congenital megacalyces is believed to be a developmental abnormality, occurs in other malformation syndromes and has not previously been described in the Schinzel-Giedion syndrome. 2012-09-26T12:54:24.769Z ]]> Periventricular white matter cystic lesions in Lowe (Oculocerebrorenal) syndrome : a new MR finding http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:21613 The Lowe (Oculocerebrorenal)syndrome is an X-linked disorder characterized by psychomotor retardation, hypotonia, congenital cateracts, glaucoma and renal tubular dysfunction. In this report we present a patient with a new finding of periventricular white matter cystic lesions demonstrated on magnetic resonance (MR) scans. 2012-09-26T12:54:23.060Z ]]> Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome type II : report of a case with additional radiographic findings http://www.researchonline.mq.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/mq:21615 A phenotypically female infant with 46-XY chromosomes was found to have Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome, type II a rare congenital malformation syndrome with many features of the more common classic Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome. The patient's skeletal survey revealed characteristic and previously undescribed skeletal anomalies which are reported. In addition a lipoma of the pituitary gland was found on magnetic resonance imaging. This lesion is particularly interesting given the hypothesized steroid abnormality in Smith-Lemli-Opitz, type II syndrome, the sexual ambiguity of males with this syndrome and the similarity of this syndrome to the Pallister-Hall syndrome which characteristically has a hamartoblastoma of the hypothalamus. 2012-09-26T12:54:22.387Z ]]>
