Abstract:
Micro syndrome is a rare condition in which congenital cataracts, microphthalmia, and facial dysmorphism are associated with severe neurological disorders, namely: microcephaly and psychomotor retardation. We report on polymicrogyria and motor neuropathy in a patient with Micro syndrome. These findings provide new insights into developmental defects underlying motor and mental disabilities.
