Syndactylic Oxycephaly

📋Overview

Syndactylic Oxycephaly refers to a combination of congenital anomalies involving both the skeletal structure of the skull and the extremities. This legacy term describes the presence of a pointed or cone-shaped head, known as oxycephaly, occurring in conjunction with syndactyly, the webbing or fusion of fingers or toes. Historically, this presentation was often associated with what is now classified as Apert syndrome or other craniosynostosis syndromes.
