A distinctive feature was the presence of zygodactylous triradii Z, Z, Z(100%) on the soles of the feet, and deep skin furrows on the palms and soles(68.2%).

    Patient 1 was referred for delayed speech and language development. A pharyngoplasty (i.e., pharyngeal flap surgery combined with pushback incision according to Wardill) done at 8 years of age resulted in a makred reduction of hypernasal speech and thus better intelligibility. The patient several additional physical anomalies.,Patient 2 was seen at 2 weeks age for facial dysmorphism. A pharyngoplasty performed at the age of 5 years demonstrated, after 12 months, a significant improvement in intellegibility with reduced hypernasality.
