    Abstract

    Genetic syndromes that mimic congenital infection are important to recognize because of the associated risk of recurrence. We describe two brothers born to consanguineous parents with clinical features suggestive of intrauterine infection but with negative serologic investigations. Our observations suggest that Aicardi-Goutières syndrome (AGS) and pseudo-TORCH syndrome likely represent the same disorder. Copyright © 2005 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
