Figure 2 Clinical features of subjects with CHRNG mutations and Escobar (A–H) and lethal (I and J) variants of MPS. An affected child from family MPS001 demonstrates an expressionless face and webbing of neck, axillae, and elbows (A); webbing of neck (posterior view) (B); thumb pterygium and camptodactyly (C); and popliteal pterygia and rocker-bottom feet (D). In family MPS015, an affected individual has neck pterygium (E) and pterygia and fixed flexion deformities at elbow (F), lower limbs (G), and hand (H). Elbow pterygium (I [arrow]) and muscle histopathology demonstrate an abnormal myotubular appearance (J) in a case of LMPS (from family MPS008).
