A provisionally unique syndrome with features including "molar tooth" sign and "femoral hypoplasia": The femoral-facial syndrome (FH-UFS) is a rare syndrome of uncertain inheritance comprising hypoplastic femora, microretrognathia, and peculiar facies. We describe a new case with facial dysmorphism, broad chest and widely spaced nipples, shorter right lower limb with femoral hypoplasia and unilateral fibular hemimelia, bilateral absence of 5th metatarsal and toe, and bilateral talipes equinovarus. In addition, a complete agenesis of corpus callosum, cerebellar vermis hypoplasia with molar tooth sign and Dandy-Walker malformation were present. Posterior fossa abnormalities in FH-UFS have not been described in the literature until now, thus extending the clinical spectrum of this entity. Other syndromes characterized by femoral hypoplasia and/or molar tooth sign are also discussed.
一种具有“磨牙征”和“股骨发育不全”等特征的暂定独特综合征:股骨面综合征(FH-UFS)是一种遗传方式不明的罕见综合征,包括股骨发育不全、小下颌后缩及特殊面容。我们描述了1例新病例,其具有面部畸形、宽胸及乳头间距增宽、右下肢较短伴股骨发育不全及单侧腓骨半肢畸形、双侧第5跖骨和趾缺如以及双侧马蹄内翻足。此外,还存在胼胝体完全缺如、小脑蚓部发育不全伴磨牙征及Dandy-Walker畸形。迄今为止,文献中尚未描述过FH-UFS的后颅窝异常情况,从而扩展了该疾病的临床谱。还讨论了以股骨发育不全和/或磨牙征为特征的其他综合征。
