Abstract
A family with hereditary nephritis, sensorineural hearing loss, macroc ephaly, and mental retardation is reported. X-linked recessive inherit ance was suggested by the presence of two affected brothers and a mate rnal uncle. This association may be a previously unreported variant of Alport's syndrome.
