The examinations revealed peripheral hypertonia, psychomotor retardation (limited facial expression:no smile, poor eye contact), borderline microcephaly (head circumference of 39 cm, at 3rd centile) (Fig. 1a), periodical stereotypic movements and minor dysmorphic features such as a small forehead with bitemporal narrowing, strabismus, broad base to nose and long philtrum. At the age of 12 months, the head circumference was 40.7 cm (<< 3rd centile) (Fig. 1a) while the height and weight remained between 10th and 25th centile. Re-examination at the age of 19- months and 2-years, revealed head circumference of 42 cm (<< 3rd centile) (Fig. 1a), height of 75.5 cm (slightly below the 3rd centile) and weight of 9 Kg (slightly below the 3rd centile).
