Macrodactyly, hemihypertrophy, and connective tissue nevi: report of a new syndrome and review of the literature.
Macrodactyly and hemihypertrophy have been described in association with a number of syndromes which are reviewed. We describe a child who, in addition to macrodactyly and hemihypertrophy, has extensive connective tissue nevi. He does not conform to any known entity and would appear to represent a "new" syndrome.
