New case of Cole-Carpenter syndrome

Am J Med Genet. 2000 Jun 5;92(4):273-7. doi: 10.1002/(sici)1096-8628(20000605)92:4<273::aid-ajmg10>3.0.co;2-t.

Abstract

We describe a girl with a severe progressive type of osteogenesis imperfecta, in association with multisutural craniosynostosis, growth failure, and craniofacial findings including ocular proptosis, marked frontal bossing, midface hypoplasia, and micrognathia. Collagen analysis was normal. These features are consistent with the diagnosis of Cole-Carpenter syndrome. This report provides further evidence for the existence of this rare genetic entity.
