A 13 year Jewish boy with the classical features of the Cockayne syndrome is reported. His parents were first cousins supporting autosomal recessive inheritance of this disorder. Fibroblasts were cultured from a skin biopsy and various aspects of collagen synthesis were analyzed and compared to two controls matched for age and sex. No abnormalities in collagen synthesis were observed in our patient.
