Marfanoid features and craniosynostosis: report of one case and review
1Service de Pédiatrie et Génétique Médicale, Pellegrin-Hôpital d'Enfants, Bordeaux, France.
Abstract:
A new syndrome was delineated by Shprintzen and Goldberg (1982) based on the description of two patients with scaphocephaly, facial dysmorphism, arachnodactyly, mental retardation and other connective tissue defects. Sugarman and Vogel (1981) reported another child with the same overall pattern of anomalies. A fourth patient with normal mental development was described by Furlong et al. (1987) as a new syndrome. We report on another example of marfanoid features associated with craniosynostosis. This boy has no mental retardation and the case seems to be similar to the Furlong case but different from the others because of the lack of mental retardation.

Cranial Bones: Superior and Posterior View
The frontal bone is the single bone that forms the forehead. At its anterior midline, between the eyebrows, there is a slight depression called the glabella. The frontal bone also forms the supraorbital margin of the orbit. Near the middle of this margin is the supraorbital foramen, the opening that provides passage for a sensory nerve to the forehead. The frontal bone is thickened just above each supraorbital margin,...
Cranial Bones: Lateral View
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...
