Familial infantile scoliosis associated with bilateral paralysis of conjugate gaze. 1979

M Granat, and Z Friedman, and T Aloni

A family with two sibs suffering from idiopathic infantile scoliosis associated with bilateral paralysis of conjugate gaze is reported. Although the parental consanguinity and the involvement of patients of both sexes in this family are suggestive of an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance, a dominant or multifactorial pattern remains a possibility.
