“…Family M13 has previously been described elsewhere. 1,19 The affected siblings, M1303 and M1304, show classical MSS with the exception of atrophy of pons detected in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in patient M1304. No consanguinity has been reported in families M7 and M13.…”

“…It has been suggested that MSS with myoglobinuria and congenital cataracts-facial dysmorphism-neuropathy (CCFDN) syndromes are genetically identical, as they both map to chromosome 18qter [176,177]. In contrast, a locus for classical MSS has recently been assigned to chromosome 5q31 and mutations have been identified in the SIL1 gene (encoding a factor involved in the proper protein folding) [178][179][180]. …”

“…Microcephaly, nystagmus, short stature, scoliosis, hypergonadotrophic hypogonadism and myopathy are common additional features 57,58 . Peripheral neuropathy, deafness, optic atrophy, strabismus, spasticity and seizures might be present 57 . Disease progression is slow and long survival can be expected 2 .…”
