Microcephaly with or without chorioretinopathy, lymphedema, or mental retardation (MCLMR)- the new lacunae: a case report
This case report expands the phenotypic spectrum of MCLMR by demonstrating a unique combination of retinal features which sheds new light on differential diagnosis from Aicardy syndrome. Our findings emphasize the significant phenotypic variability associated with MCLMR, particularly regarding ocular involvement. This underscores the importance of detailed clinical evaluation and comprehensive reporting of cases to improve our understanding of the disease spectrum and genotype-phenotype correlations.
