Clinical quiz. Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome (synonyms: broad thumbs and great toes, characteristic facies, and mental retardation -- broad thumb-hallux syndrome).

A 28-year-old mentally retarded, institutionalised woman was referred to us for evaluation of multiple plantar warts and ingrown nails of both great toes. The patient was born to unrelated parents of North African origin and had one brother and three half-brothers, all of whom were healthy. Physical examination revealed short stature, slight obesity, facial abnormalities (Fig. 1), short and broad thumbs and big toes (Figs. 2 and 3). A keloid was found on the right forearm, that had developed after surgical correction of a fracture (Fig. 4). Ill-defined hyperpigmented macules were observed on the trunk. The patient also presented pruritic eczematous lesions of the limbs and the back that had been present for some years and were recurrent despite treatment with emollients and local steroids. Androgenetic-type alopecia of moderate severity was seen on the vertex of the scalp. Past medical history included polydactylism of the feet and clinodactyly of the thumbs (both corrected surgically), respiratory tract infections, Wolf-Parkinson-White syndrome and refractive errors necessitating glasses.

Snapshot diagnosis: syndromes, facies and heart disease.

In some syndromes the facial appearance of the patients is so typical that a correct diagnosis can be made 'à vue'. The five cases presented here are examples of this statement and the additional clinical data make it possible to decide on the syndromes and the complicating cardiac anomalies.

Familial syndrome of unusual triangular facies associated with cleft palate, malocclusion, midfacial hypoplasia and sensorineural hearing loss in two siblings. Is it a new autosomal recessive syndrome?

We present a previously undescribed syndrome characterized by triangular facial appearance, mid-facial hypoplasia, cleft palate and mild sensorineural hearing loss in two siblings. The parents were unrelated. The patients' stature and intelligence were normal. We suggest that the inheritance is autosomal recessive.
