Cleft palate short stature vertebral anomalies, also known as Mathieu-De Broca-Bony syndrome, is a very rare multi-systemic genetic disorder which is characterized by congenital cleft palate, facial dysmorphisms, short stature and neck, vertebral abnormalities and intellectual disabilities.[1][2] It is thought to be inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion.[3]

- Cleft palate
- Facial asymmetry
- Epicanthal folds
- Short nose
- Anteverted nostrils
- Low-set ears
- Reduced thickness of upper lip
- Micrognathism
- Short stature
- Short neck

- Intellectual disabilities
