The Marfan syndrome (MFS) is a pleiotropic, autosomal dominant disorder of connective tissue with highly variable clinical manifestations including aortic dilatation and dissection, ectopia lentis, and a series of skeletal anomalies. Mutations in the gene for fibrillin-1 (FBN1) cause MFS, and at lea

## Abstract Branchio‐oculo‐facial syndrome (BOFS; OMIM#113620) is a rare autosomal dominant craniofacial disorder with variable expression. Major features include cutaneous and ocular abnormalities, characteristic facies, renal, ectodermal, and temporal bone anomalies. Having determined that mutati
The tricho-dento-osseous (TDO) syndrome demonstrates kinky curly hair, thin-pitted enamel, taurodontism, and thickening of cortical bone. The purpose of this investigation was to characterize the phenotypic variation of TDO in 3, previously unreported, kindreds and to examine possible candidates for
