Acrocephalosyndactylia

Acrocephalosyndactylia (or acrocephalosyndactyly) is the common presentation of craniosynostosis and syndactyly.

It has several different types:
 * type 1 - Apert syndrome
 * type 2 - Apert syndrome
 * type 3 - Saethre-Chotzen syndrome
 * type 5 - Pfeiffer syndrome

A related term, "acrocephalopolysyndactyly" (ACPS), refers to the inclusion of polydactyly to the presentation. It also has multiple types:


 * type 1 - Noack syndrome. Now classified with Pfeiffer syndrome.
 * type 2 - Carpenter syndrome
 * type 3 - Sakati-Nyhan-Tisdale syndrome
 * type 4 - Goodman syndrome. Now classified with Carpenter syndrome.
 * type 5 - Pfeiffer syndrome

It has been suggested that the distinction between "acrocephalosyndactyly" versus "acrocephalopolysyndactyly" should be abandoned.
