Abstract excerpt
We report 2 siblings with the Aicardi-Goutières syndrome (encephalopathy, basal ganglia calcifications, and persistent cerebrospinal fluid pleiocytosis). The eldest sibling is severely retarded; his younger brother has only mild, slowly progressive neurological deficits. To our knowledge, such a striking difference in clinical expression has not been reported previously.
