摘要：
We report the clinical, radiological and electrophysiological signs in two unrelated girls with the connatal form of Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease (PMD). MRI plays an important role in the diagnosis, demonstrating the virtual absence of myelination. PMD is classically described as an X-linked leukodystrophy. Our two cases reinforce the hypothesis of a possible autosomal recessive transmission of the connatal form of PMD in some families, as recently presented.
