Chromosomes are normal. Metabolic disorders were excluded. None of 14 well-known types of albinism, including Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome and Chediak-Higashi syndrome, nor any other genetic syndrome, characterizes our patients sufficiently. Thus, this combination of symptoms is considered a new autosomal recessive syndrome.
