Abstract
- Aarskog–Scott syndrome (AAS), also known as facio-digito-genital syndrome, is a rare heterogenous syndrome characterized by facial dysmorphism, brachydactyly, and genetic abnormalities. Although severe craniofacial abnormalities have been reported in AAS, little is known about speech and resonance issues in AAS. Specifically, published data to date have only indicated reports of hypernasality associated with a cleft palate in AAS. This case report provides clinical and anatomic information surrounding hypernasal speech in the absence of an overt cleft palate in a patient with AAS. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
