Freeman‐sheldon's Syndrome, Cranio‐carpo‐tarsal Dystrophy

Summary A patient with Freeman‐Sheldon's syndrome (cranio‐carpo‐tarsal dystrophy), obviously the fourth case of its kind to be published, is described. No significant chromosome anomalies were demonstrated. Attention is drawn to the vertical grooves on the patient's jaw and lower lip, which may be remnants of the so‐called lateral sulci established in the embryo in a certain phase of development.
