Abstract

We describe two brothers with ring chromosome 17 presenting very different fenotypes. The first one is a 27 years-old female affected by refractory epilepsy, psychomotor impairment, dysmorphic features, milk and coffee skin spots; the brain MRI showed focal dysplasia in the right frontal lobe. Her brother is 11 years old and presented only one focal seizure; neurological and psychic examinations were normal; brain MRI showed leucomalacia in both occipital lobes.
