A rare genetic syndromic sterol biosynthesis disorder affecting males. The disease has characteristics of skin manifestations including collodion membrane, ichthyosis and patchy hypopigmented lesions associated with severe neurological involvement (for example intellectual disability, delayed psychomotor development, seizures, hydrocephalus, cerebellar/corpus callosum hypoplasia, Dandy-Walker malformation, hypotonia) and craniofacial dysmorphism (large anterior fontanelle, telecanthus, hypertelorism, microphthalmia, prominent nasal bridge, low-set ears, micrognathia, cleft palate). Toe syndactyly, polydactyly and kyphosis as well as ophthalmic, cardiac and urogenital anomalies may also be associated. There is evidence the disease is caused by hemizygous mutation in the EBP gene on chromosome Xp11. [from
