We report on a girl with fibrous tumors involving hands and feet associated with unusual brachydactyly and facial abnormalities with pigmentary skin lesions. The multiple, infiltrative fibrous tumors clinically resembled recurring digital fibromata (RDF) of infancy, but eosinophilic cytoplasmic incl

β¦ Synopsis
We report on a boy with pseudo-cleft of the upper lip, cleft palate, bifid uvula, lobulated tongue, hypoplasia of the epiglottis, both preaxial and central polydactyly of the hands (Y-shaped fourth metacarpals), bilateral preaxial polydactyly of the feet, postaxial polydactyly of the left foot, hearing impairment, and congenital heart disease with endocardial cushion defect. These clinical manifestations resembled oral-facial-digital syndrome type II (OFDS II, Mohr syndrome) or type VI (VΓ‘radi syndrome), associated with an atrioventricular canal. Clinical variability of OFDS II has been observed repeatedly. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of OFDS II with Y-shaped fourth metacarpals. In addition to Y-shaped fourth metacarpals, Mohr syndrome plus atrioventricular canal and hypoplasia of the epiglottis may represent an additional subgroup of OFDS.

We describe findings in a Japanese boy, an autopsy case of Toriello-Carey syndrome with endocardial fibroelastosis. The patient, a boy, was the only child of a 25-year-old primigravid mother and a nonconsanguineous 33-yearold father. The pregnancy was complicated by threatened miscarriage at 8 week
We report on an 18-year-old man with moderate mental retardation, multiple congenital anomalies and partial trisomy 7q21.2-->q22.1, as the unbalanced product of a familial balanced 7q/6q insertion translocation. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first example of interstitial trisomy 7q21.2--
The oral-facial-digital syndrome type 1 (OFD1) includes limb, facial, intraoral malformations and the gene for the disorder was recently mapped to Xp22.3-p22.2. We report on monozygotic twin girls discordant for OFD1. Monozygosity is supported by placental pathology (monochorionic diamniotic) and mo
