Craniosynostosis, microcephaly, hydrancephaly, humero-radial synostosis, and thumb aplasia: a new syndrome?
We describe a growth-retarded newborn infant with craniosynostosis, microcephaly, hydrancephaly, oligodactyly, humero-radial synostosis, and normal chromosomes. The combination of anomalies has hitherto been unreported and we consider this to be a "new" syndrome.
