This report details a Brazilian boy with ectrodactyly, cleft lip/palate, and abnormal pinnae, aligning with previously documented cases. Clinical and genetic factors of this rare condition are explored.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Genetics
  • Clinical Dysmorphology
  • Pediatric Case Study

Background:

  • Ectrodactyly, cleft lip/palate, and abnormal pinnae are rare congenital anomalies.
  • Previous reports, such as Lewis and Pashayan (1981), have described similar presentations.
  • Understanding the genetic basis of these combined malformations is crucial for diagnosis and counseling.

Observation:

  • A case report of a Brazilian boy presenting with a distinct combination of ectrodactyly, cleft lip/palate, and abnormal pinnae.
  • The patient's phenotype closely mirrors the characteristics described in the 1981 Lewis and Pashayan study.
  • Detailed clinical observations were recorded for each anomaly.

Findings:

  • The presented case strongly suggests a syndromic pattern of malformation.

  • Clinical features are consistent with a potential genetic etiology, warranting further investigation.
  • Comparison with existing literature supports the recognition of this specific phenotype.

    • Implications:

    • This case contributes to the understanding of ectrodactyly, cleft lip/palate, and abnormal pinnae spectrum.
    • Highlights the importance of detailed phenotyping in rare genetic disorders.
    • Informs genetic counseling and potential management strategies for affected families.
