Melnick-Needles syndrome

Melnick-Needles syndrome (MNS) belongs to the otopalatodigital syndrome spectrum disorder and is associated with a short stature, facial dysmorphism, osseous abnormalities involving the majority of the axial and appendicular skeleton resulting in impaired speech and masticatory problems.
