Abstract
The Aarskog syndrome is characterized by short stature with typical facial, digital and genital anomalies. A further case is reported which presented with the uncommon finding of ophthalmoplegia and three previously unreported oral-facial findings: enamel dysplasia, a "col" deformity of the anterior mandible and a paresis of the facial muscles innervated by the VII cranial nerve. The implications of genetic heterogeneity in this nosologic classification are discussed.Keywords
