Freeman-Burian syndrome

Abstract: Clinical descriptionFreeman-Burian syndrome (FBS) is a rare congenital myopathic craniofacial syndrome. Considerable variability in severity is seen, but diagnosis requires the following: microstomia, whistling-face appearance (pursed lips), H or V-shaped chin defect, and prominent nasolabial folds. Some patients do not have limb malformations, but essentially all do, typically camptodactyly with ulnar deviation of the hand and talipes equinovarus. Neuro-cognitive function is not impaired.EpidemiologyPopulatio… Show more

As part of this decadelong effort to clarify the descriptor, 1 definition, classification, 2 and clinical care framework for FBS, broad, 17 and focused [18][19][20] discussions, and a meta-analysis 22 covering FBS have been published. Neither the sponsor (Freeman-Sheldon Research Group, Inc.) nor any institution has had any role in protocol development or associated activities.…”

“…A comprehensive review of FBS 17 and discussions on diagnosis, evaluation, craniofacial, 18 dentofacial and otorhinolaryngology, 19 and anesthetic 20 management have been published elsewhere. Though most patients are diagnosed at birth or in early childhood, this discussion is relevant to all patients with FBS.…”

“…1), formerly Freeman-Sheldon syndrome [8]. FBS is a rare congenital myopathic craniofacial syndrome [9], about which relatively little is known, and with the exception of our recently published anaesthesia recommendations [10], no clinical guidelines are available. Considerable clinical variability in severity is observed in FBS patients, but diagnosis requires the following: microstomia, whistling-face appearance (pursed lips), H- or V-shaped chin defect, and prominent nasolabial folds (Fig.…”

“…Considerable clinical variability in severity is observed in FBS patients, but diagnosis requires the following: microstomia, whistling-face appearance (pursed lips), H- or V-shaped chin defect, and prominent nasolabial folds (Fig. 1) [11]. Some patients do not have limb malformations, but essentially all do, typically camptodactyly with ulnar deviation of the hand and talipes equinovarus (Fig.…”
