Abstract/OtherAbstract:
A sporadic, adult male patient with generalized platyspondyly, large mandible, hypoplastic teeth, strabismus, and low serum cholesterol levels is presented. Some of the patient's features resemble brachyolmia, Spondylo-epiphyseal dysplasia tarda, Kenny-Caffey and Stickler syndromes. Based on literature review, possible diagnoses are discussed. In conclusion, this patient can have a variant ofbrachyolmia or Spondylo-epiphyseal dysplasia tarda. However, we cannot exclude that this constellation of clinical features may represent a new syndrome.
