Say-Meyer syndrome, also called trigonocephaly with short stature and developmental delay,[1] is an autosomal dominant[2] congenital disorder consisting of trigonocephaly, short stature, and motor and mental retardation.[3] Trigonocephaly is a deformity of the skull in which the vault of the skull is sharply angled just in front of the ears, giving the skull a triangular shape. The syndrome is named after Turkish medical geneticist Burhan Say and American physician Julia Meyer.[3]
