Low-set ears are defined as the outer ears being positioned two or more standard deviations lower than the population average. [1] Clinically, if the point at which the helix (curved upper part) of the outer ear meets the cranium is at or below the line connecting the inner canthi of eyes (the bicanthal plane), the ears are considered low set ...
Because of the abnormal forehead, there is less space for the normal facial features to develop. This results in shallow eye sockets and flat cheekbones. The shallow eye sockets make the eyes more prominent or bulging and cause the eyes to be more separated than normal (hypertelorism).
Facial features include widely spaced eyes, light-colored eyes, low-set ears, a short neck, and a small lower jaw. [1] Heart problems may include pulmonary valve stenosis. [1] The breast bone may either protrude or be sunken, while the spine may be abnormally curved. [1] Intelligence is often normal. [1] Complications of NS can include leukemia ...
Minor physical anomalies (MPAs) are relatively minor (typically painless and, in themselves, harmless) congenital physical abnormalities consisting of features such as low-set ears, single transverse palmar crease, telecanthus, micrognathism, macrocephaly, hypotonia and furrowed tongue.
Abnormalities also include: broad nasal root, prognathism (protruding lower jaw), or low-set, possibly rotated, ears. Pulmonary stenosis: Narrowing of the pulmonary artery as it exits the heart. Other cardiac abnormalities may be present, including aortic stenosis, or mitral valve prolapse.
Low-set ears are the most common cranial dysmorphism seen in 3C syndrome, and ocular coloboma is the least common of the non-concurrent symptoms (cleft lip co-occurring with cleft palate is the least common). [5] Cranial dysplasias associated with 3C syndrome are also reflected in the brain.
Perfect for all levels of hearing loss, the Eargo 7 is a completely-in-canal hearing aid that boasts an almost invisible-to-the-naked-eye design. Its small size and low profile make it a discreet ...
Microcephaly deafness syndrome is an extremely rare genetic disorder which consists of microcephaly, congenital hearing loss, mild intellectual disability, speech delay, low height, and facial dysmorphisms (such as low-set cup-shaped ears, protruding lower lips, micrognathia, epicanthal folds, drooping lower lip, and a rather big distance between both eyebrows).
