The syndrome of pachygyria, mental retardation, and arachnoid cysts maps to 11p15.

摘要

Recently, we delineated a syndrome of pachygyria, mental impairment, seizures, and arachnoid cysts [Guzel et al., 2007]. This syndrome was found in a consanguineous family from Southeastern Turkey. The three affected sibs in this family were the first generation to present with this condition, strongly suggesting autosomal recessive inheritance (Fig. 1).
