AbstractWe describe in two brothers an apparently novel syndrome comprising obesity, congenital hypothyroidism, neonatal colitis, cardiac biventricular hypertrophy, craniosynostosis, and developmental delay. The first brother presented with neonatal colitis and congenital hypothyroidism and died at age 5 weeks of fulminant colitis. The second brother presented neonatally with the same condition, but survived and subsequently developed severe obesity, sagittal and coronal synostosis, and developmental delay. Both pregnancies had been complicated by hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelets (HELLP syndrome). Exhaustive genetic and metabolic investigations have failed to provide a unifying pathogenesis. This unique combination of manifestations appears to represent a new syndrome with probable autosomal recessive or X-linked recessive inheritance. © 2006 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
