Three diagnostic signs in Williams syndrome.
In a series of 48 patients with Williams syndrome examined from 1984 to 1988, 3 physical manifestations were noted which have not been emphasized in previous reports of this condition. Unusual sacral creases were found in 25/48 patients, a linear array of hemangiomas (nevus flammeus) on the back in 3/48, and limitation of supination in 5/48.
