Parietal Foramina 2; Pfm2

Description

Parietal foramina-2 is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by bilateral parietal foramina in the skull. Some patients with PFM2 may also have mild features of frontonasal dysplasia, including hypertelorism or nose abnormalities (summary by Altunoglu et al., 2014).For a phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of parietal foramina, see PFM1 (OMIM ).
