Noonan syndrome is a multiple congenital anomaly syndrome, inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern. We studied 31 patients (18 males and 13 females) affected by this disorder regarding their clinical and genetic characteristics. The most frequent clinical findings were short stature (71%); craniofacial dysmorphisms, especially hypertelorism, ptosis, downslanting of the palpebral fissures; short or webbed neck (87%); cardiac anomalies (65%), and fetal pads in fingers and toes (70%). After studying the probands' first-degree relatives, we made the diagnosis of Noonan syndrome in more than one family member in three families. Therefore, the majority of our cases were sporadic.

Fryns syndrome (FS) is a multiple congenital anomaly syndrome, inherited as an autosomal recessive defect with diagnostic triad including diaphragmatic hernia, abnormal face, and distal limb anomalies. Two cases of FS in the fetuses, whose mother had previous affected pregnancy with the infant having diaphragmatic hernia are presented. Both fetuses have atypical limb deformity, ectrodactyly. These cases illustrate the spectrum of FS and the importance of a family history in fetuses with congenital diaphragmatic hernia.

We report on a 14-year-old girl who presented a multiple congenital anomaly pattern: ablepharon, hypertelorism, telecanthus, macrostomia, helix agenesis of both ears, redundant thick skin and severe hirsutism, the 5th reported case of Barber-Say syndrome. Our patient had almost the same phenotype as that of the patient cited by Martínez Santana et al. (Am. J. Med. Genet. 47: 20-23, 1993) including the same until then undescribed dermatoglyphic pattern.
