Lacrimoauriculodentodigital syndrome

LADD syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by mutations if the genes FGF10, FGFR3 and FGFR2. Symptoms include eye (atresia of the lacrimal system), mouth (stomatitis, difficulties to swallow), ear (anomalies of the auricle, mixed type hearing loss), teeth (caries, delayed dentation), ad fingers (syndactyly, clinodactyly).
