Two unrelated males presented a distinct syndrome, consisting mainly of mental retardation, short stature, wrinkled facies, curly and fine hair, scanty eyebrows and eyelashes, telecanthus, periodontitis, hypermobility of the joints, hyperextensibility and fragility of the skin, multiple nevi, papiraceous scars, bruisability, varicose veins, pectus excavatum, winged scapulae, pes planus and bilateral cryptorchidism. Since some features were typical of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), the clinical data were analyzed comparatively with the different types of EDS. The individualization of a distinct variant is concluded. Increased paternal age at the birth of both cases suggests a de novo dominant mutation.
