Orofaciodigital syndrome type IV: report of a patient

We describe a further patient with the orofaciodigital syndrome type IV. The clinical characteristics include lobulated tongue, pseudo-cleft of lip, pre- and postaxial polydactyly of hands and feet, severe talipes equinovarus, mesomelic limb shortness associated with tibial hypoplasia, and severe bilateral deafness. Five similar cases including the present patient are now on record. Autosomal recessive inheritance is likely.
