“…Our patient 1 had no hepatic abnormalities; the status of patient 2 in this regard is unknown, and patient 3 showed periportal fibrosis and bile duct accentuation. Cerebellar defects have beeen described infrequently in the SLOS and have included persistence of the external granular layer of the cerebellum [40], hypoplasia [ 1251, asymmetry and increased weight [24], compression atrophy [ 11 11, and partial vermis agenesis [21, 531. In comparison, cerebellar anomalies are more frequent in the MS, with 38 cases noted [3,34,48,60,69,70,73,78,95,98,102,103,106,112,118,122,126,1301, with six having agenesis or hypoplasia of the vermis [3, 69, 95, 1031. In 1969, Joubert et a1 [75] described four sibs born to parents who were remotely consanguineous; two of these sibs had partial and two complete agenesis of the cerebellar vermis. Associated findings were hypotonia, strabismus, mental retardation, periodic breathing, opsoclonus, ataxia, and seizures.…”
