This syndrome has a variable clinical picture of premature coronal suture synostosis with a mild midfacial hypoplasia and hypertelorism, downslanting external palpebral fissures, beaking of the nose and brachydactyly (involving only fingers, not metacarpals). It has been reported in only one family with five affected individuals in three generations. Prenatal diagnosis of abnormal head shape was done at a routine ultrasound examination for one of the grandchildren, at 28 weeks of pregnancy. The pedigree suggests an autosomal dominantly inherited condition, but no gene could be identified for this syndrome, considered as a distinct craniosynostosis entity.
