Abstract
We describe a 5-year-old girl with features resembling Trichorhinophalangeal syndrome, type I (sparse scalp hair, bushy eyebrows, bulbous nose, long philtrum, cone-shaped epiphyses, clinobrachydactyly, epiphyseal changes in the femoral head and short stature), and appendicular exostoses similar to trichorhinophalangeal syndrome, type II. However, despite physical resemblance to the trichorhinophalangeal syndrome variants, cytological analysis showed a structurally normal chromosome 8 and no mental deficiency was apparent. In addition, morphological congruities between multiple exostoses and metachondromatosis was indicated from radiographic findings.
