who was brought to the Paediatric OPD, Kasturba Medical College Hospital, Attavar, Mangalore India, with the complaints of

the characteristic congenital abnormal findings in Lenz syndrome,
which comprise of microophthalmia, ear anomalies, microcephaly,
skeletal and digital deformities, and urogenital malformations were
observed, with an exception of a dental anomaly. Dental abnormalities were not pertinent, as the patient was a neonate. |
