Macrocephaly, alopecia, cutis laxa, and scoliosis is an autosomal-recessive disorder related to the cutis laxa group of inherited disorders associated with macrocephaly, sparse hair, redundant skin, hyperlaxity of joints, gingival hypertrophy, retrognathia with abnormal skull morphology, and severe scoliosis. Homozygous mutations in RIN2, a protein that is involved in the regulation of endocytosis, have been reported.
