Seckel Syndrome 8; Sckl8

Description

Seckel syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by intrauterine growth retardation, dwarfism, microcephaly with mental retardation, and a characteristic 'bird-headed' facial appearance (summary by Shanske et al., 1997).For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of Seckel syndrome, see SCKL1 (OMIM ).
