A three year old female patient born of consanguineous parents presented to the (development and behavioural
clinic) Taif Children Hospital, Western Saudi Arabia, her mother complained that her daughter had speech
delay, no eye to eye contact, and was performing stereotyped behaviours (hand flapping). The girl developed
convulsions at the age of three months and was on anticonvulsant medication since that age her convulsions
were controlled on anti-epileptic treatment. Family history revealed that the girl had a male sibling six years
old who developed convulsions at the age of four months and is on antiepileptic medications, the boy also
suffered from speech delay, absence of social interaction, and repetitive behaviours.
