Abstract

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.
