Abstract
The cerebro-costo-mandibular syndrome combines bucco-mandibular abnormalities similar to those of the Pierre Robin syndrome, delayed psychomotor development and characteristic costal malformations. On each side, several ribs are interrupted in their dorsal portion. In the three children studied here, there were only eleven pairs of ribs. This brings the number of cases in the literature to twelve. The prognosis of the cerebro-costo-mandibular syndrome is severe, since eight of the children described died during the first months of life.
