Beals syndrome (Congenital contractural arachnodactyly, Beals-Hecht syndrome) is a rare congenital connective tissue disorder. Beals syndrome has only recently been described as a syndrome distinct from Marfan's Syndrome. Sufferers usually have long, thin, fingers and toes with contractures preventing straightening and limiting movement^[1]. Contractures also affect hips, elbows, knees and ankles. They also have unusual external ears that appear crumpled. Contractures may be present from birth and may appear as a clubbed foot.
