Abstract

The femoral hypoplasia- unusual facies syndrome (FH/ UFS); also known as femoral facial syndrome (FFS), is a rare condition characterized by a variable degree of unilateral or bilateral femoral hypoplasia associated with facial anomalies.The two principal characteristics of this syndrome, micrognathia and shortened femur, can be demonstrated by sonographic (US) imaging in the early stages of pregnancy. This disorder was first discovered by Daentt et al in 1975 and is more common in females.
