Multiple synostoses syndrome

Deafness-Hermann type symphalangism syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by mutations of the NOG gene. It is characterized by proximal symphalangism in fingers and toes as well as fusion of carpal and tarsal, humeroradial, and cervical spine joints. Often an congenital conductive hearing loss is also observed.
