Horizontal gaze palsy with progressive scoliosis.

Horizontal gaze palsy with progressive scoliosis (HGPPS) is a rare autosomal recessive condition characterized by absence of abduction and adduction movements with intact vertical eye movements and progressive scoliosis. Patients usually present by mid-childhood with complaints of progressive scoliosis. The clinical diagnosis of HGPPS can be further confirmed by the ROBO3 gene mutation on chromosome number 11. We present 2 Indian siblings who were incidentally diagnosed with HGPPS with synergistic convergence on regular eye examination; diagnosis was confirmed by radiological and genetic testing.
