A second patient with MCA/MR syndrome with multiple circumferential skin creases.

Abstract

Symmetrical congenital circumferential skin creases are a rare feature described in only a few conditions. We report a case of a 29-month-old boy with symmetrical circumferential skin creases on arms, legs, and digits, and other features reminiscent of the single case reported by Cohen et al. [1993: Clin Dysmorphol 2:39-46] and reviewed by Elliott et al. [1996: Am J Med Genet 62:23-25]. The key features also include epicanthic folds, microphthalmia, microcornea, microcephaly, small, low-set posteriorly angulated ears with thick overfolded helices, cleft palate, and moderate-severe psychomotor developmental delay.
