Radial ray defect and Robin sequence: a new syndrome?
We report an infant with the principal features of bilateral radial defects, club foot deformity, micrognathia and cleft palate. Other dysmorphic manifestations include the presence of bilateral clinodactyly, medial displacement of the thumb, low set ears and an unusually long 2nd toe. This constellation of signs has not been previously reported and may constitute a new syndrome.
