Two cases of Vici syndrome presenting with corpus callosum agenesis, albinism, and severe developmental delay.

Background: Vici syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disease with phenotypically heterogeneous presentation. Characteristic features of the disease are oculocutaneous albinism, corpus callosum agenesis, cataract, cardiomyopathy, and immunodeficiency.

Case: Here we report two Turkish patients with Vici syndrome. One of these patients had a novel mutation in EPG5 and presented with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) and maculopapular rashes similar to Stevens-Johnson syndrome, which has been previously reported in only a few cases in the literature.

Conclusion: Vici syndrome presents with a typical phenotype which may facilitate diagnosis for infants with multisystemic disorders. ITP and maculopapular rashes might be added to the spectrum of findings of patients with Vici syndrome.
