title: Multiple congenital anomalies syndrome: growth and mental retardation, microcephaly, preauricular skin tags, cleft palate, camptodactyly, and distal limb anomalies. Report on two unrelated Brazilian patients.
abstract: We report on 2 unrelated Brazilian patients, born to non-consanguineous parents, both with multiple anomalies including growth and mental retardation, microcephaly, telecanthus, cleft palate, preauricular skin tags/pit, camptodactyly, and foot anomalies. To our knowledge, this is a previously undescribed formal genesis syndrome. Clinical and genetic aspects are discussed.
