Abstract

Freeman-Sheldon syndrome (FSS) is an extremely rare syndrome with only about 100 cases reported [1]. It was first described by Freeman and Sheldon in 1938 [2]. It is characterized by oropharyngeal abnormalities, contractures of the hands and feet and a characteristic "whistling" facies. We report a male neonate of Freeman Sheldon Syndrome presenting with small mouth (microstomia) and pursed lips, prominent nasolabial folds and bilateral distal arthrogryposis. A brief review of literature has also been added.   Retraction Notice: This paper has been retracted from the journal after receipt of written complains. This journal is determined to promote integrity in research publication. This retraction is in spirit of the same. After formal procedures editor(s) and publisher have retracted this paper on 30th  August-2017. Related policy is available here: http://goo.gl/lI77Nn
