Disease or Syndrome
Cerebrocostomandibular syndrome (CCMS) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder characterized by branchial arch-derivative and thoracic malformations. A key craniofacial characteristic is micrognathia, often associated with cleft palate and feeding and airway difficulties. Patients with CCMS have a narrow chest and striking posterior rib gaps which distinguish this condition (summary by Tooley et al., 2016). See CDG2G (611209) for a cerebrocostomandibular-like syndrome.
