title: Delayed speech development with facial asymmetry.
abstract: We report on four unrelated children with delayed speech development associated with mild facial asymmetry and transverse ear lobe creases. The combination of these features proved to be familial in one case. Our findings seem to confirm the existence of a syndrome described by Mehes [(1993) J Med Genet 30:76-77].
