Pfeiffer Syndrome

 
Pfeiffer Syndrome involves premature cranial vault synostosis of both coronal sutures, whereas in Crouzon Syndrome other sutures may be the culprit. Like Crouzon Syndrome, however, Pfeiffer Syndrome causes midface hypoplasia. Pfeiffer Syndrome is also identified by unusually wide thumbs and fusion of the soft and/or connective tissue in the hands.
