Radioulnar synostosis-microcephaly-scoliosis syndrome, also known as Guiffré-Tsukahara syndrome, is an extremely rare syndrome characterized by the association of radioulnar synostosis with microcephaly, scoliosis, short stature and intellectual deficit.

In newborns, the two frontal bones, two parietal bones, and one occipital bone are joined by fibrous sutures, which form a small posterior fontanelle, and a larger, diamond-shaped anterior fontanelle. These regions allow for the skull to pass the birth canal and for later growth. The fontanelles gradually ossify, whereby the posterior fontanelle usually closes by eight weeks and the anterior fontanelle by the 9th to 16th month of age. Large fontanelles are diagnosed if the fontanelles are larger than age-dependent norms.
