The face of Job.
We evaluated facial features in 9 patients from 7 kindreds with Job syndrome. Consistent features included prominent forehead with deep-set eyes, increased width of the nose, a full lower lip, and thickening of the nose and ears. The mean alar width (Z score = +3.9) and outer canthal distance (Z score = +2.2) were significantly increased. A recognizable face of Job syndrome exists.
