Robinow syndrome (RS) is a rare genetically heterogeneous condition characterized by hypertelorism, nasal features (large nasal bridge, short upturned nose, and anteverted nares), midface hypoplasia, mesomelic limb shortening, brachydactyly, clinodactyly, micropenis, and short stature. Both autosomal recessive and autosomal dominant inheritance have been described. The phenotypic presentation in both types of RS overlaps; however, subtle variances in the severity of craniofacial, musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, and urogenital characteristics may be present. In general, autosomal recessive RS (RRS) patients have more severe dysmorphology than autosomal dominant RS (DRS), especially in the musculoskeletal system.
