Am J Med Genet. 1999;82(4):348-51.
The findings typical of the 18q- syndrome included mental retardation, midface hypoplasia, and hypoplasia of labia majora, and those typical of Rett syndrome were severe mental retardation, autistic behavior, inappropriate hand-washing movements, epilepsy, attacks of sighing and hyperventilation, and progressive scoliosis since the age of 5 years.
