I was now convinced that I had encountered a new malformation syndrome. My impression was confirmed by F.N. Silverman, then radiologist at Cincinatti Children's Hospital. From the above description it is clear that children with Robinow syndrome can have a number of different abnormalities. See figure 1 for a picture. The alveolar ridges are hyperplastic.
Teeth often erupt late and when they do so, they are often crowded and misaligned.
Permanent teeth often erupt too late as well. Sometimes the lower eyelids are hypoplastic , thus giving the impression of prominent eyes. They are often low-set. Build Most children with Robinow syndrome have short lower arms and lower legs. The amount of shortening will differ between children.
