Abstract:
This report describes a father and daughter with Char syndrome, a rare autosomal dominant disorder. Both affected individuals had typical face, strabismus, and foot anomalies. The girl also had a patent ductus arteriosus. In addition, both patients had polythelia (supernumerary nipples), a finding not described before in the Char syndrome.
