DOI: 10.2340/0001555575479481

Abstract

Setleis' syndrome is an uncommon inherited condition characterized by bilateral "scarlike" depressions on the temples and a wide spectrum of associated facial abnormalities. We report on a typically affected Japanese boy, whose mother and grandfather show a much milder expression of this disorder, suggesting an apparent autosomal dominant inheritance.
