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
Robin sequence with cleft mandible and limb anomalies, known as Richieri-Costa-Pereira syndrome (RCPS), is an autosomal recessive acrofacial dysostosis characterized by mandibular cleft and other craniofacial anomalies and respiratory complications. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to describe the hyoid and head posture of 9 individuals with RCPS using cephalometric measurements and provide a discussion about its implications in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). The study was conducted on lateral cephalograms of patients with RCPS and 9 selected age-matched controls in tertiary cleft center in Brazil. The cephalograms were digitized and analyzed on a software to obtain the vertical and horizontal hyoid position, its relationship with the mandible and the relation of the cranial base and postvertebral line. The t test was used for analysis of means and Levene's test for equality of variances.Cephalometric measurements H-S (vertical distance between hyoid bone and sella) (Supplemental Digital Content, Figure 1, http://links.lww.com/SCS/B247) and H-C4lp (horizontal position of the hyoid in relation to the post-pharyngeal space) showed statistically significant difference compared to controls (P < 0.05). Therefore, the hyoid bone was more inferiorly and posteriorly positioned in the study group compared with the control group. The vertebrae measurements did not present differences compared to controls. The described position of hyoid bone could be involved in the severe OSAS of RCPS patients.

Abstract
Median cleft deformities of the lower lip and mandible are very rare congenital anomalies. Our patient had median cleft of the lower lip, mandible, and the chin with tongue duplication, ankyloglossia, and cleft strap muscles with 2 neck contracture bands. This anomaly was associated with congenital heart disease transposition of great vessels, large ventricular septal defect, and severe pulmonary stenosis. Early repair was done at 6 months to improve feeding.

Abstract
Atypical craniofacial clefts of the upper facial region have been well documented; however, the mandibular clefts remain rare and reported as isolated case reports. We report a case of a median mandibular cleft within the context of a Tessier 0-14 axis that we have followed over a 5-year period without surgical/orthodontic intervention. The mandibular symphysis cleft remained open without evidence of the fusion, in contrast to ossification of the metopic dysraphism. Within this context, we present a review of the median mandibular cleft cases from 1819 to 2015.

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
The human facial dysostoses can be subdivided into mandibulofacial dysostoses (MFDs) and acrofacial dysostoses (AFDs). The craniofacial phenotypes of the two groups of patients are similar. Both types are thought to be related to abnormal migration of neural crest cells to the pharyngeal arches and the face. The craniofacial anomalies shared by the two groups consist of downslanting palpebral fissures, coloboma of the lower eyelid, from which the eyelashes medial to the defect may be absent, hypoplasia of the zygomatic complex, micrognathia, and microtia, which is often associated with hearing loss. These facial deformities are associated with limb anomalies in the AFDs. All MFDs present with the typical craniofacial phenotype, but some have additional features that help to distinguish them clinically: intellectual disability, microcephaly, chest deformity, ptosis, cleft lip/palate, macroblepharon, or blepharophimosis. The limb anomalies in the AFDs can be classified into pre-axial, post-axial, and others not fitting into the first two AFD types. Of the pre-axial types, Nager syndrome and of the post-axial types, Miller syndrome are the best-known disorders of their AFD subgroups. Several other AFDs with unknown molecular genetic bases, including lethal ones, have been described. This article reviews the MFDs and AFDs published to date.

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.

PURPOSE We present a 17-year follow-up of an unusual patient with median cleft of the lower lip, mandible, and tongue with a flexion contracture. CONCLUSION Timing of the mandibular reconstruction needs to take into account growth of the mandible and masticatory function. In this case, fixation of the mandible performed at the age of 6 years 6 months and reconstruction carried out at 7 years 8 months of age resulted in satisfactory occlusion and masticatory function.

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.

Abstract
The acrofacial dysostoses (AFDs) are a heterogeneous group of disorders combining defects of craniofacial and limb development. The predominantly preaxial form is called Nager AFD, the predominantly postaxial form of AFD (POADS) is also known as the Genée-Wiedemann or Miller syndrome. The former appears to be about twice as common as the latter with well-documented autosomal dominant and recessive occurrences in both conditions. Only 1 AD occurrence of POADS is known, but 5 sets of sibs are suggestive of AR inheritance. Heterogeneity of apparently nonsyndromal AFD of both types is powerful support for the hypothesis that the AFDs are polytopic field defects arising during blastogenesis. Six other previously described forms of AFD include the AFD syndrome of Kelly et al. (AR), the Rodríguez or Madrid form of AFD (AR or XLR), the Reynolds or Idaho form of AFD (AD), the Arens or Tel Aviv type of AFD (AF?), the presumed AR AFD syndrome of Richieri-Costa et al., and the AD Patterson-Stevenson-Fontaine syndrome. Here we review the AFDs and report on a previously apparently undescribed autosomal or X-linked dominant form of AFD with mental retardation in a Sicilian mother and her 4 sons.
