Abstract:
Two cases of hypoglossia-hypodactylia syndrome are reported. This syndrome is characterized by reduction in the size of tongue, micrognathia and variable limb anomalies. In these present cases, both karyotypes revealed normal. The unrelated parents and siblings are normal. Drug exposure to the mother during pregnancy was negative. Since this syndrome is rare and no previous report in Taiwan. So we report these two cases and review the literature.
