We report a 9 year old girl with microcephaly and self-limiting
dilated cardiomyopathy. Additional features include mental retardation,
delayed developmental milestones, and minor dysmorphic features. This
is the second reported case of this phenotype, which is believed to be
a new autosomal recessive syndrome.
Keywords: microcephaly-cardiomyopathy syndrome; mental retardation
