Abstract
OBJECTIVE Patients with Richieri-Costa-Pereira syndrome (RCPS) present severe craniofacial alterations and frequently require orthodontic and surgical procedures. Thus, this study aims to describe the craniofacial relationships in patients with RCPS. DESIGN Panoramic radiographs and lateral cephalometric teleradiographs of 7 patients with RCPS and 7 age- and sex-matched nonsyndromic patients were analyzed. Cephalometric measurements were used to determine the size of apical bases, the relationship between them, the pattern of craniofacial growth, and the facial heights of the patients. Interobservers' concordance was verified by intraclass coefficient. For comparison between the groups, paired t test was employed. P values <.05 indicated statistical significance. RESULTS Average age of patients with RCPS was 18.5 years. Six patients were female. All patients with RCPS had Pierre-Robin sequence while 2 also presented cleft mandible. Most patients with RCPS had missing lower central incisors (100%), lower lateral incisors (85.7%), lower second premolars (85.7%), and/or upper lateral incisors (57.1%). Concordance between observers was excellent for all cephalometric measurements (0.87-0.99). Patients with RCPS presented severe craniofacial alterations when compared to control group: sella-nasion-B point (SNB) angle (73.8o ± 4.86o vs 78.85o ± 4.53o, P = .029), maxillary length (7.89 cm ± 0.58 cm vs 16.36 cm ± 0.75 cm, P = .001), mandibular length (9.90 cm ± 0.46 cm vs 20.61 cm ± 0.45 cm, P = .001), upper anterior face height (5.41 cm ± 0.50 cm vs 9.40 cm ± 0.47 cm, P = .001), lower anterior face height (5.48 cm ± 0.75 cm vs 11.66 cm ± 0.55 cm, P = .001), and posterior face height (6.70 cm ± 0.33 cm vs 13.65 cm ± 1.06 cm, P = .001). There was no difference in SNB, A point-nasion-B point, pogonion-nasion-B point, and mandibular place angles between the groups (P > .05). CONCLUSION Patients with RCPS present deficient development of maxilla and mandible when compared with nonsyndromic patients.

Abstract
Richieri-Costa-Pereira syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive acrofacial dysostosis that has been mainly described in Brazilian individuals. The cardinal features include Robin sequence, cleft mandible, laryngeal anomalies and limb defects. A biallelic expansion of a complex repeated motif in the 5' untranslated region of EIF4A3 has been shown to cause this syndrome, commonly with 15 or 16 repeats. The only patient with mild clinical findings harbored a 14-repeat expansion in 1 allele and a point mutation in the other allele. This proband is described here in more details, as well as is his affected sister, and 5 new individuals with Richieri-Costa-Pereira syndrome, including a patient from England, of African ancestry. This study has expanded the phenotype in this syndrome by the observation of microcephaly, better characterization of skeletal abnormalities, less severe phenotype with only mild facial dysmorphisms and limb anomalies, as well as the absence of cleft mandible, which is a hallmark of the syndrome. Although the most frequent mutation in this study was the recurrent 16-repeat expansion in EIF4A3, there was an overrepresentation of the 14-repeat expansion, with mild phenotypic expression, thus suggesting that the number of these motifs could play a role in phenotypic delineation.

Abstract
Laryngeal structural anomalies were described in 13 cases of Richieri-Costa Pereira syndrome, and four previously reported cases were reviewed. The 17 individuals examined had the typical laryngeal anomalies and vocal disorders previously described. The new findings are the laryngeal microweb observed in three cases and arytenoid anteriorization movement observed in 14 cases.

Abstract
Richieri-Costa and Pereira syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized specially by Pierre Robin sequence with cleft mandible and limb anomalies. There are a typical laryngeal anomaly which encompass short and round larynx, absent or abnormal epiglottis, and abnormal aryepiglottic folds. Most patients reported were from Brazil. We describe a brother and sister with Richieri-Costa and Pereira syndrome on another Brazilian family documenting their physical findings and laryngeal defects. We also review the literature and discuss the main clinical characteristics and etiology.

Abstract
The Richieri-Costa/Pereira form of acrofacial dysostosis is an autosomal-recessive condition characterized by short stature, Pierre-Robin sequence, preaxial and postaxial abnormalities in hands, congenital talipes, cleft mandible and malformations of the larynx. We report female infant presenting with severe micrognathia, a hypoplasic clavicle, median mandible cleft, bilateral hand abnormalities and talipes, laryngeal malformations, hip subluxation with acetabular dysplasia and mesomelic shortening of limbs. A few reported patients have clavicular hyploplasia but hip subluxation with acetabular dysplasia and mesomelic shortening of limbs have not been described.

Abstract
The Richieri-Costa-Pereira syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by short stature, Robin sequence, cleft mandible, pre/postaxial anomalies and clubfoot. Of 15 families reported with this disorder 14 are from Brazil suggesting a founder effect. We studied 15 families using identity-by-descent as a hypothesis to attempt gene localization We have examined through linkage analysis 497 polymorphic-markers and also performed direct sequencing of exons for 10 candidate genes selected on the basis of their expression in the developing mandible and limb. No evidence for allele sharing at any locus tested or mutations in candidate genes was found. Additional higher resolution mapping, new families and other candidate genes might improve future chances of gene identification.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to determine whether specimens from infants with palatal defects (PDs) with or without craniofacial malformations (CFMs) exhibit aberrant laryngeal histologic findings compared with specimens from normal infants. Ten laryngeal specimens from infants with PDs with or without CFMs were histologically compared with 7 laryngeal specimens defined as normal from the same collection. Both groups were similar in terms of demographics and airway manipulation. All infants were prelingual. Comparisons were made at 3 levels: supraglottic, glottic, and subglottic. Histologically, no significant differences in primary laryngeal structures were found between the PD with or without CFM group and the group defined as normal. Acquired and intubation-type injuries, such as inflammation, ulceration, capillary congestion, and scar tissue, were more prevalent and severe in the study group. The primary laryngeal histologic findings of specimens from individuals with PDs with or without CFMs do not differ substantially from those from normal individuals; however, individuals with PDs do appear to be somewhat more susceptible to intubation injury and other acquired laryngeal injury. Meticulous airway management is essential.

Abstract
We report on a French boy with cleft mandible, pre/postaxial hand anomalies, and clubfoot born to consanguineous parents. These findings are comparable to those of previous cases of the autosomal recessive Richieri-Costa and Pereira syndrome of short stature, Robin sequence, cleft mandible, pre/postaxial hand anomalies, and clubfoot. This is the first case in a non-Brazilian infant.
