Two subjects (brother and sister), children of consanguineous parents, showed a typical congenital corneal dystrophy associated with mental retardation and a bilateral malformation of the little finger. One of them, a boy of 10, was fat and showed a hearing loss for high tones. His corneal opacity diminished during 7 years observation. Seeing that the affected tissues were of mesenchymal origin, the authors conclude that the syndrome was mesodermal.
