Abstract

Cerebrocostomandibular syndrome (CCM) is characterized by micrognathia, cleft palate, rib defects, and frequently, mental deficiency. Death from respiratory complications occurs in 40 percent of cases before they reach 1 year of age. We describe a case of CCM with the previously unreported findings of large for gestational age at birth, radiologic evidence of bilaterally displaced radial heads, and development of brachycephaly.
