Facio‐cardio‐renal (Eastman‐Bixler) syndrome

We report on a 5-year-old boy with moderate mental retardation, horseshoe kidneys, tricuspid valve prolapse, and a characteristic face with broad nasal root, prominent ears, and a cleft palate. These manifestations suggested the diagnosis of the Eastman-Bixler syndrome. Our patient also had an isolated growth hormone deficiency which responded successfully to treatment.
