We aimed to understand the etiology behind the abnormal craniofacial contour and other clinical presentations in a number of children with Robinow syndrome. Seven children with Robinow syndrome were enrolled in this study (autosomal recessive caused by homozygous mutations in the ROR2 gene on chromosome 9q22, and the autosomal dominant caused by heterozygous mutation in the WNT5A gene on chromosome 3p14). In the autosomal recessive (AR) group, the main clinical presentations were intellectual, disability, poor schooling achievement, episodes of headache/migraine, and poor fine motor coordinative skills, in addition to massive restrictions of the spine biomechanics causing effectively the development of kyposcoliosis and frequent bouts of respiratory infections. Three-dimensional reconstruction computed tomography scan revealed early closure of the metopic and the squamosal sutures of skull bones. Massive spinal malsegmentation and unsegmented spinal bar were noted in the AR group. In addition to severe mesomelia and camptodactyly, in the autosomal dominant (AD) group, no craniosynostosis but few Wormian bones and the spine showed limited malsegemetation, and no mesomelia or camptodactyly have been noted. We wish to stress that little information is available in the literature regarding the exact pathology of the cranial bones, axial, and appendicular malformations in correlation with the variable clinical presentations in patients with the 2 types of Robinow syndrome.

Malformations of the umbilicus are a feature of many dysmorphic syndromes including Rieger syndrome, Robinow syndrome, and Aarskog syndrome. The characteristic umbilical malformation in Rieger syndrome consists of redundant periumbilical skin which extends along the cord for an excessive distance. Although the measurement of umbilical skin length plays an important role in the neonatal diagnosis of Rieger syndrome, normal values for this measurement in healthy neonates have not been established. Umbilical skin length was measured in 104 healthy neonates. The length to which the umbilical skin extended along the cranial aspect of cord (mean 11.53 mm, SD 3.58) was significantly longer than the umbilical skin length along the caudal aspect (mean 8.71 mm, SD 2.89) (P < .05). Multiple regression analysis revealed a significant association between age and umbilical skin length. Birth weight, length, and gestational age were not significantly associated with umbilical skin length when adjusted for the other three variables. No significant differences in umbilical skin length were observed between male and female groups. The above normal values should aid in the neonatal diagnosis of Rieger syndrome, and furthermore it is recommended that cranial umbilical skin length measurement be included in the examination of the dysmorphic child.
