Abstract
We report on two boys with a combination of short stature, a broad face, ma crodontia and developmental delay. These features suggest that they have th e KBG syndrome, a rare but distinctive phenotype. The pattern of inheritanc e remains uncertain and both autosomal dominant and X-linked recessive inhe ritance should be considered in genetic counselling.
