A rare genetic multiple congenital anomalies/dysmorphic syndrome with characteristics of microcephaly, severe global developmental delay and intellectual disability, hypotonia, respiratory insufficiency, failure to thrive, and congenital anomalies affecting the skeleton, eyes, and several organ systems. Seizures and hearing loss are sometimes observed. Independent ambulation and meaningful speech are not attained. Common dysmorphic facial features include small forehead, biparietal narrowing, flat face, hypertelorism, arched eyebrows, short, upslanting palpebral fissures, wide nasal bridge, small, upturned nose, forward facing ears, and micrognathia. Brain imaging shows structural abnormalities in all patients.	Finding site	True	Head structure	Inferred relationship	Some	1
A lethal form of pontocerebellar hypoplasia with characteristics of prenatal onset of microcephaly, hypoplasia of the cerebellum, brainstem, and spinal cord, dysmorphic craniofacial features such as sloping forehead and micrognathia, and multiple contractures. Supratentorial atrophy has also been reported.	Finding site	True	Head structure	Inferred relationship	Some	6
A form of pontocerebellar hypoplasia characterised by severe, progressive microcephaly and severe global developmental delay apparent from birth, severe intellectual disability with lack of social interactions and absence of speech, and pontocerebellar hypoplasia and complete or partial agenesis of the corpus callosum on brain imaging. In addition, affected individuals often present hypotonia, spastic tetraplegia, and early-onset seizures. Chronic anaemia and thrombocytopenia have also been reported.

A rare syndromic optic nerve hypoplasia with characteristics of coloboma, osteopetrosis (particularly of the anterior ribs and femoral heads), severe microphthalmia, macrocephaly, albinism, and profound congenital deafness. Patients may also have additional eye anomalies including microcornea with pannus, dense bilateral cataracts, and translucent irides. Craniofacial dysmorphism (including frontal bossing, shallow orbits, preauricular pits, posteriorly rotated ears, micrognathia and wide palatine ridges) is also reported.

A rare constitutional aplastic anaemia characterised by aplastic anaemia, intellectual disability, short stature, and microcephaly. Skin pigmentation or cafe au lait spots are often present. Majority of the patients present global developmental delay with impaired motor skills, learning disabilities, speech delay whereas some patients also may have behavioural problems including autistic features. Patients often develop premalignant myelodysplastic syndromes or leukaemia.	Finding site	True	Head structure	Inferred relationship	Some	1
A rare multiple congenital anomalies/dysmorphic syndrome characterized by central nervous system abnormalities (particularly cerebellar hypoplasia), congenital microcephaly, intellectual disability, severe neurodevelopmental delay, growth impairment, dystonia, eye abnormalities (particularly cataract whereas retinal dystrophy and Leber congenital amaurosis are also reported) and congenital dyserythropoietic anemia. Additional clinical features may include other structural brain abnormalities (such as cerebral atrophy, basal ganglia atrophy, brainstem hypoplasia), feeding difficulties, sleep disturbances, hepatomegaly, and sensorineural deafness.
