Intellectual disability-alacrima-achalasia syndrome is a rare genetic intellectual disability syndrome characterized by delayed motor and cognitive development absence or severe delay in speech development intellectual disability and alacrima. Achalasia/dysphagia and mild autonomic dysfunction (i.e. anisocoria) have also been reported in some patients. The phenotype is similar to the one observed in autosomal recessive Triple A syndrome but differs by the presence of intellectual disability in all affected individuals.
