title: Previously undescribed syndrome of craniofacial, hand anomalies, and sensorineural deafness.
abstract: We describe in a mother and her infant daughter a previously unreported syndrome of unusual craniofacial, hand, and digital anomalies. Both mother and child have a flat facial profile, hypertelorism, hypoplastic nose with slit-like nares, and a sensorineural hearing loss. Common radiographic manifestations include small maxilla, absent or small nasal bones, and ulnar deviation of the hands. This is either an autosomal dominant or X-linked trait.
