Recommend evaluation: It is hard to tell what genetic disorder it could be, if there is one, without seeing a patient. In making a genetic diagnosis, physical examination is extremely important to look for subtle clues of genetic syndromes. If your brother wants to i would recommend being evaluated by a clinical geneticist formally to achieve understanding of a possible diagnosis.
