Dubowitz syndrome was first reported in 1965 by Victor Dubowitz. Dubowitz syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by microcephaly, short stature, abnormal faces, eczematous skin eruption, and mild to severe mental retardation. In this review, we describe a female newborn with microcephaly, micrognathia, high narrow, syndactyly, clinodactyly, ventricular septal defect, poor feeding and sacral dimple. Here, we heard the requirement to report this case because of rarity.

Keywords: Dubowitz syndrome, microcephaly, newborn

Dubowitz sendromu ilk kez 1965 yılında Victor Dubowitz tarafından bildirildi. Dubowitz sendromu mikrosefali, kısa yapı, anormal yüz, egzamatöz cilt lezyonları ve hafif-orta dereceli mental retardasyon ile karakterize otomozal resesif geçen nadir bir hastalıktır. Tanımlanan yenidoğan kız olguda mikrosefali, mikrognati, yüksek damak, sindaktili, klinodaktili, ventriküler septal defekt, beslenme güçlüğü ve sakral gamze vardı. Bu olguyu nadir görülmesi nedeniyle yayınlama gereksinimi duyduk.
