Abstract

Three siblings with multiple congenital dislocations, other associated skeletal anomalies and typical facial characteristics are presented. Two of the three also had hydrocephalus, and all three had delayed coalescence of the centers of ossification of the calcaneus. Two of the three had multiple anomalous ossification centers in the carpal bones of the wrists.
