Additional Information:

Description: (OMIM) The neonatal progeroid syndrome, also known as Wiedemann-Rautenstrauch syndrome, is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by intrauterine growth retardation, failure to thrive, short stature, a progeroid appearance, hypotonia, variable mental impairment, and death in childhood (summary by ...
Clinical Description OMIM Based on the observation of 2 sisters reported by Rautenstrauch et al. (1977) and 2 unrelated patients of his own, Wiedemann (1979) suggested the existence of a distinct neonatal progeroid syndrome showing autosomal recessive inheritance. Snigula and Rautenstrauch ...
