Abstract

A dysmorphic syndrome is suspected in the presence of more than three minor anomalies which are variations of normal morphological features that are considered of little or no known medical, surgical, or cosmetic significance; more than one major anomaly which is an abnormality that has major medical, surgical or cosmetic significance; and one major anomaly with two or more minor anomalies are also suggestive of congenital syndrome. Many congenital syndromes are associated with different combinations of hypertelorism (with or without flat mid-face), epicanthic folds, convergent squint, low set ears, upward and downward slanting of the palpebral fissures, and eyebrows abnormalities occurring in association with hypotonia and developmental delay. The aim of this paper is to describe the occurrence of a new congenital syndrome with the novel association of unique eyebrows abnormalities (splitting with a relatively thick upward slanting medial parts and thin non-slanting lateral parts) with downward slanting palpebral fissures, bilateral convergent squint, hypertelorism with flat mid-face, epicanthic folds, large ears, developmental delay, and infantile hypotonia mostly attributed to congenital myopathy.
