摘要
Two cases of Sotos' syndrome are described and the 43 recorded cases reviewed. The condition is characterized by: (1) high birthweight for gestational maturity, (2) an unusual appearance with macrocrania, dolicocephaly, hypertelorism, prognathism, a high arched palate, and facial plethora, (3) accelerated growth and accelerated skeletal maturation from early infancy, with some features of acromegaly (4) clumsiness without neurological deficit, (5) normal endocrine functions. The aetiology remains obscure.
