Health professionals need a standardized approach to physical measurement in patients with congenital abnormalities and syndromes. The purpose of this handbook is to provide a practical collection of reference data on a variety of physical measurements for use in the evaluation of children and adults with dysmorphic features and/or structural anomalies. Each chapter concentrates on a specific body area, and includes: an introduction which outlines the embryology of that area, the landmarks from which measurements are taken, the intstuments necessary, and the ways in which to obtain the measurements; growth charts; and references to which the reader should refer for in-depth understanding of statistics, methodology, anthropometrics, and anthropologic approach. Concluding chapters consider specific syndromes and examine the physician's approach to a child with dysmorphic features. It has been prepared as an easy-to-use pocket book, making it ideal for taking to the ward or clinic.
