abstract={Schwartz-Jampel syndrome (SJS) is a rare autosomal recessive hereditary disorder characterized by the triad of myotonia, facial dysmorphisms, and skeletal deformities. Less than 150 cases have been reported in the medical literature. SJS is caused by mutations in the gene heparan sulfate proteoglycan 2 (HSPG2) located on chromosome 1p34-36.1 which encodes perlecan, a major component of basement membranes. Here we report three novel mutations in a 6-year-old girl.},
