dc.description.abstractInfantile tremor syndrome is characterized by coarse tremors, mental and physical retardation, light colored brown hair, skin pigmentation and anemia. Amongst the theories proposed for the etilogy of the disorder, the nutritional theory is most accepted. In this case report, we have presented a fourteen-month-old male child with ITS and documented zinc deficiency. Though most of the previous workers have proposed vitamin-B12 deficiency as the etimology for ITS, our report suggests that zinc deficiency could also have a causative role.en_US
