Abstract

We treated two siblings, a sister and brother, who had features of septo-optic dysplasia, including bilateral optic nerve hypoplasia, absent septum pellucidum, and partial pituitary insufficiency. Additionally, midline central nervous system abnormalities of the corpus callosum and cerebellum were shown. The familial occurrence of this disorder raises the possibility of autosomal-recessive inheritance.
