Alternative titles and symbols : FTSS; Faciothoracoskeletal syndrome;
Description : Cantu et al. (1980) described 2 sisters, aged 18 and 11 years, with intrauterine growth
retardation and camptodactyly as a leading feature. They were 142 and 126 cm tall,
respectively. Epicanthus, broad nasal bridge, flat face, depressed lower sternum,
twelfth rib hypoplasia, fibular hypoplasia, and hallux valgus were other features.
The parents were not demonstrably consanguineous but their forebears had lived in
the same small village for several generations. Figuera et al. (1993) corroborated
and further delineated this syndrome on the basis of 3 sibs from a Mexican family:
2 girls, aged 18 and 9 years, and a 7-year-old boy. They had intrauterine growth retardation,
dwarfism, peculiar facial appearance, camptodactyly, and skeletal anomalies. The parents
were related as half third cousins. The family was from the same region as the one
earlier reported. All 5 reported patients had brachycephaly, microcephaly, flat facies,
epicanthal folds, and telecanthus, as well as small, downturned mouth, dental malocclusion,
hallux valgus, and pectus carinatum/excavatum. In 2 Brazilian brothers born to consanguineous
parents, Richieri-Costa et al. (1994) reported a seemingly 'new' syndrome characterized
by thin/long face, small ears, blepharophimosis, malar hypoplasia, long neck, pectus
excavatum, brachycamptodactyly, and sacral dimple. The older boy was found to have
megacolon at the age of 2 years but surgical intervention was not necessary. Both
brothers had seizures. Richieri-Costa et al. (1994) referred to the condition as faciothoracoskeletal
syndrome. Ramirez-Duenas and Cantu (1995) suggested, and Richieri-Costa (1995) agreed,
that the entity named faciothoracoskeletal syndrome is the same as Guadalajara camptodactyly
syndrome type I. Zechi-Ceide et al. (2002) reported a Brazilian female with a thin/long
face, blepharophimosis, minor auricular anomalies, camptodactyly, and thoracic and
spinal anomalies. The authors considered the clinical features in this patient to
be consistent with the diagnosis of Guadalajara camptodactyly syndrome type I. Also
