We describe a new case of Say syndrome. This syndrome is an autosomal dominant condition characterized by cleft palate, short stature of prenatal onset, large protruding ears and microcephaly, delayed bone age, and renal anomalies. The first report was in 1975 by Say et al. in three generations of a

To our knowledge, she represents the fourth described case of Barber-Say Syndrome (BSS). BSS and ablepharon macrostomia syndrome (AMS) share common and distinctive clinical manifestations that involve the same structure of the skin and adnexa. We hypothesize that they may derive from a defective regulation of the same gene. Am.

We report on a mother-to-son transmission of the Barber-Say syndrome, a finding that strongly supports dominant inheritance of this rare disorder. The characteristic facial changes, small ears, hirsutism, and redundant skin of our patients are consistent with the findings of five reported cases. The
