Abstract

In 1989, Tsukahara and colleagues described a single female with a provisionally unique pattern of malformation consisting of low intelligence, short stature, brachydactyly type A1, and characteristic facial features. We report on a second patient confirming Tsukahara syndrome as an established entity. (C) 2010 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
