Abstract

The case of a male infant with neonatal encephalopathy and a de novo MECP2 mutation is reported. The presenting phenotype of decelerating head growth, spasticity, scoliosis, and central respiratory disturbance raised suspicions of the diagnosis. Neonatal encephalopathy in males is part of a spectrum of disorders caused by MECP2 dysfunction.
