We report on two boys with a combination of short stature, a broad face, ma
crodontia and developmental delay. These features suggest that they have th

e remains uncertain and both autosomal dominant and X-linked recessive inhe
ritance should be considered in genetic counselling. Clin Dysmorphol 9: 87-
