title: Sensorineural deafness in the FG syndrome: report on four new cases.
abstract: We report on four new cases of FG syndrome with typical manifestations of this X-linked inherited condition and note a hitherto undescribed sign, sensorineural deafness. The association between sensorineural deafness and imperforate anus is likely to represent more than a chance occurrence, given its presence also in the Townes-Brocks syndrome.
