Summary:
The femoral hypoplasia-unusual facies syndrome (FH-UFS)
is a very rare association of femoral and facial abnormalities.
We report a 19 days old male baby with bilateral femoral
hypoplasia and cranio-facial dysmorphism including low
set ears, upslanted palpebral fissures, long philtrum with
thin upper lip, micrognathia, hypoplastic alae nasi, short
broad tipped nose, and cleft palate. Tongue tie was also
present as an additional feature.
Key words: Femoral hypoplasia-unusual facies syndrome,
case report, Rare disease.
