The autosomal dominant syndrome with congenital stapes ankylosis, broad thumbs and hyperopia.
A family is reported with conductive hearing loss, hyperopia, broad thumbs and broad first toes. The family resembles a previous reported family (Teunissen B, Cremers CWRJ (1990) Laryngoscope 100: 380-384) but additionally all affected members have a typical face. Overlap of the Teunissen and Cremers syndrome with the facio-audio-symphalangism syndrome and proximal symphalangism is discussed.
