Seckel syndrome

Seckel syndrome is a type of microcephalic primordial dwarfism that is characterized by a proportionate dwarfism of prenatal onset, a severe microcephaly, a typical dysmorphic face (bird-like), and mild to severe intellectual disability.

Hypotonia

Muscular hypotonia is an abnormally low muscle tone (the amount of tension or resistance to movement in a muscle), often involving reduced muscle strength. Hypotonia is characterized by a diminished resistance to passive stretching.
