Wiedemann-Steiner syndrome (WSS) is characterized by developmental delay, intellectual disability, and characteristic facial features, with or without additional congenital anomalies. The facial features include thick eyebrows with lateral flare, vertically narrow and downslanted palpebral fissures, widely spaced eyes, long eyelashes, wide nasal bridge, broad nasal tip, thin vermilion of the upper lip, and thick scalp hair. About 60% of affected individuals have hypertrichosis cubiti ("hairy elbows"), which was once thought to be pathognomic for the syndrome, with a majority having hypertrichosis of other body parts. Other clinical features include feeding difficulties, prenatal and postnatal growth restriction, epilepsy, ophthalmologic anomalies, congenital heart defects, hand anomalies (such as brachydactyly and clinodactyly), hypotonia, vertebral anomalies (especially fusion anomalies of the cervical spine), renal and uterine anomalies, immune dysfunction, brain malformations, and dental anomalies. [from GeneReviews]

Autosomal recessive intellectual developmental disorder-80 with variant lissencephaly (MRT80) is characterized by global developmental delay with mildly to moderately impaired intellectual development and behavioral abnormalities. Speech delay and motor abnormalities, such as hypotonia, may also be present. Brain imaging shows lissencephaly with pachygyria and mild cortical thickening in the frontotemporal lobes (Uctepe et al., 2024). [from OMIM]
