Preferred Label : Branchial arch syndrome, X-linked;
Type : Other, mainly phenotypes with suspected mendelian basis;
Alternative titles and symbols : Mandibulofacial dysostosis, toriello type;
Description : Toriello et al. (1985) reported 2 brothers and their male maternal first cousin with
branchial arch defects and other anomalies. All 3 showed microcephaly, downslanting
palpebral fissures, highly arched palate, apparently low-set, protruding ears, bilateral
hearing loss, slightly webbed neck, somewhat short stature, and learning disability.
Cryptorchidism was present in 2 and subvalvular pulmonic stenosis and body asymmetry
in 1. Zelante et al. (1993) reported another patient with this syndrome. Puri and
Phadke (2002) reported a boy with mild mandibulofacial dysostosis, growth retardation
with microcephaly, bilateral hearing loss, thoracic deformity with a cardiac valvular
lesion, and bilateral cryptorchidism. The authors considered the patient to have the
Toriello type of mandibulofacial dysostosis with some additional features, including
pectus excavatum. They suggested that the 2 sibs reported by Delb et al. (2001) also
had the Toriello type of MFD. *FIELD* RF 1. Delb, W.; Lipfert, S.; Henn, W.: Mandibulofacial
