Abstract

Lujan-Fryns Syndrome (LFS) is defined as a set of symptoms including mild-moderate mental retardation, marfanoid appearance, hypotonia at birth, hypernasal speech, characteristic craniofacial appearance and normal testis size. The frequency of the syndrome is not known thus the information obtained is solely based on case reports. Hereby, we present a patient with LFS diagnosis.
