โœฆ Synopsis

A sixteenth-century illustrated pamphlet from Great Britain suggests that documentary evidence may permit accurate diagnosis of pathological conditions in earlier societies. The document is of particular importance, since the presented congenital abnormalities, including cleft lip, spina bifida cystica, genu recurvatum, and talipes deformity are reported rarely in archaeological skeletal material. It is suggested that the combination of abnormalities may represent the earliest case of arthrogryposis multiplex congenita or Larsen syndrome.

We report on an 8-year-old boy with clinical manifestations suggestive of a new arthrogryposis syndrome.

Oculodentodigital syndrome (O.D.) is an autosomal dominant disorder comprising facial anomalies, syndactyly, microcorneae, dental enamel hypoplasia, and leukodystrophy. We describe a four generation family with O.D. in which anomalies such as syndactyly appear congenitally, whereas neurological (i.e

Crouzon syndrome (CS) is characterized by premature craniosynostosis, orbital proptosis, and midfacial hypoplasia and is related to the acrocephalosyndactylies (ACS) with limb abnormalities. In CS the hands are considered to be normal, but a previous report indicated that there is consistent alterat
