A novel syndrome with dwarfism, poorly muscled build, absent clavicles, humeroradial fusion, slender bones, oligodactyly and micrognathia

We report on a 15-year-old girl with severe pre- and post-natal growth reta rdation, poorly muscled build, micrognathia, ulnar ray oligodactyly; absent clavicles, abnormal scapulae, humeroradial fusion, hip dislocation, small iliac wings, slender tubular bones and normal intelligence. An extensive se arch has failed to ascribe this association to a known condition. This chil d shared some clinical and radiological features with the Yunis-Varon syndr ome but the normal intelligence and the ulnar ray oligodactyly of our patie nt does not support this diagnosis.
