Anyone seen this before?

I didnt know such a condition existed. I know about the one where children age really fast and die early, or other typical/known conditions where children age normally but don't grow physically and/or mentally/emotionally beyond primary school age.

But this one is weird, as if she stopped growing not at the age of 5 or 6, but as a year old toddler. At the same time, she doesn't seem to act like a typical mentally retarded child and neither as a baby, rather, as if she is a mature person/baby with controlled motor movements and chooses not to speak, but is taking all her surroundings in and understands everything.

I am just going by what I can see... need to figure out the name of the condition in English or find the report in English to know more about her and her condition.

Either way, I find it really amazing.

Stupid YouTube comments, devolving into a debate about god and his cruelty within a couple of comments.

You probably already know, but the general term for this is antigeria. I'm sure there are subsets with specific names, but I'm not aware of any particular ones.

Aha antigeria, opposite of progeria (the one where children age fast), makes sense.

Ok, I did a google search, and this is all i could find.

Otherwise, it is names of companies, quite a common name, actually. No actuall medical or scientific results from google from the first 5 pages.

So while the name makes sense, that's not apparently what the medical community calls it.
