Children with Sotos syndrome have growth acceleration, macrocephaly, acromegaloid features and delay in neuropsychomotor development during infancy. Syndrome delineation and differential diagnosis are based on evaluation of phenotypic characteristics and evolutive history of the patients. Seven patients with this syndrome are reported, and the relative occurrence of the phenotypic characteristics present in 198 reported cases are reviewed. Motor difficulties present in those patients during early infancy are responsible for the poor performance on IQ tests. Oriented stimulation should be encouraged in order to help the affected children to overcome their initial difficulties and to achieve normal scholarity and life performance.
