“…The relationship of disturbances in potassium metabolism to paralysis has been recently reviewed (19). Of our six cases with documented potassium depletion, only one patient developed paralysis (subject G., Table I).…”

“…Four cases of sustained cardiac arrhythmia in familial periodic paralysis have been reported, of which only one occurred in a patient with hypokalemic periodic paralysis (Klein et al 1963, Levitt et al 1972, Lisak et al 1972. Rarely an arrhythmia may occur transiently in induced attacks of periodic paralysis (Gass et al 1948, Scherf & Schott 1973.…”

“…(Holtzapple, 1905;Talbott, 1941;Gass, Cherkasky & Savitsky, 1948;Hoffmann, 1952;Shy et al, 1961). The combination of these diseases could imply a close genetic association of two autosomal conditions, most likely a direct transmission from the propositus' father.…”

Summary Nine members in three generations of a Chinese family were found to have Waardenburg’s syndrome comprising, mainly, lateral displacement of the inner canthi, broadening of the nasal root and hypertrichosis of the eyebrows. Other minor features were also found. Two patients had in addition, hypokalemic periodic paralysis of the familial type, one had prominent frontal bossing and another, bilateral cleft lips and palate. These associated anomalies have not been previously documented and the presence of two autosomal dominant genetic defects in this family is of particular interest.
