Abstract
Case histories of two family members with multiple exostosis and schizophrenia are presented. There are no previous reports of such an association. The computerized axial tomography scan revealed signs of hydrocephalus in one patient and substantial enlargement of lateral brain ventricles in the other. The mutual occurrence of all three clinical findings (multiple exostosis, ventricular brain enlargement and psychosis) in two family members may suggest a subgroup of patients who manifest schizophrenic symptomatology.
