Oral-facial-digital syndrome is a group of at least 13 related conditions that affect the development of the mouth, facial features, and digits in between 1 in 50,000 to 250,000 newborns with the majority of cases being type I (Papillon-League-Psaume syndrome).

Nearly all individuals show multiple café au lait spots.Features common in neurofibromatosis - Lisch nodules, bone abnormalities, neurofibromas, optic pathway gliomas and malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors - are absent in this condition Symptoms however, may include:

- Freckles

- Lipomas

- Macrocephaly

- Learning disabilities

- ADHD

- Developmental delay

The eponym Rosenbach’s disease is in reference to the milder type of the condition and is named after Friedrich Julius Rosenbach. Klauder’s syndrome I is a syndrome of severe systemic involvement, and is named after Joseph Victor Klauder.

Erysipeloid of Rosenbach is a cutaneous condition most frequently characterized by a purplish marginated swelling on the hands.

Legius syndrome (LS) is an autosomal dominant condition characterized by cafe au lait spots. It was first described in 2007 and is often mistaken for neurofibromatosis type I (NF-1), it is caused by mutations in the SPRED1 gene, it is also known as Neurofibromatosis Type 1-like syndrome (NFLS). The condition is a RASopathy, developmental syndromes due to germline mutations in genes

Short rib – polydactyly syndrome is a family of four closely related dysplasias:

- I - "Saldino-Noonan type"

- II - "Majewski type"

- III - "Verma-Naumoff type" (associated with DYNC2H1)

- IV - "Beemer-Langer type"

Hurler–Scheie syndrome (also known as "mucopolysaccharidosis type I H-S") is a cutaneous condition, also characterized by mild mental retardation and corneal clouding.

Albinism–deafness syndrome (also known as "Woolf syndrome" and "Ziprkowski–Margolis syndrome") is a condition characterized by congenital neural deafness and a severe or extreme piebald-like phenotype with extensive areas of hypopigmentation.

A locus at Xq26.3-q27.I has been suggested.

It has been suggested that it is a form of Waardenburg syndrome type II.

Café au lait spots are usually present at birth, permanent, and may grow in size or increase in number over time.

Cafe au lait spots are themselves benign and do not cause any illness or problems. However, they may be associated with syndromes such as Neurofibromatosis Type 1 and McCune-Albright syndrome.

The size and shape of the spots do not have any meaning or implications with regards to diagnosis of associated syndromes.

Lipomatosis is believed to be an autosomal dominant condition in which multiple lipomas are present on the body. Many discrete, encapsulated lipomas form on the trunk and extremities, with relatively few on the head and shoulders. In 1993, a genetic polymorphism within lipomas was localized to chromosome 12q15, where the HMGIC gene encodes the high-mobility-group protein isoform I-C. This is one of the most commonly found mutations in solitary lipomatous tumors but lipomas often have multiple mutations. Reciprocal translocations involving chromosomes 12q13 and 12q14 have also been observed within.

Although this condition is benign, it can sometimes be very painful depending on location of the lipomas. Some patients who are concerned with cosmetics seek removal of individual lipomas. Removal can include simple excision, endoscopic removal, or liposuction.

Other entities which are accompanied by multiple lipomas include Proteus syndrome, Cowden syndrome and related disorders due to PTEN gene mutations, benign symmetric lipomatosis (Madelung disease),Dercum's Disease, familial lipodystrophy, hibernomas, epidural steroid injections with epidural lipomatosis, and familial angiolipomatosis.

Diagnosis is visual with measurement of spot size. The number of spots can have clinical significance for diagnosis of associated disorders such as Neurofibromatosis type I. Greater than or equal to 6 spots of at least 5mm in diameter in pre-pubertal children and at least 15mm in post-pubertal individuals is one of the major diagnostic criteria for NF1.

Scheie syndrome (also known as "MPS I-S") is less severe version of Hurler syndrome. It is a condition characterized by corneal clouding, facial dysmorphism, and normal lifespan. People with this condition may have aortic regurgitation.

It is named after Harold Glendon Scheie (1909–1990), an American ophthalmologist.

Symptoms vary from one type of the syndrome to another and from one patient to another, but they include:

- Very pale or brilliantly blue eyes, eyes of two different colors (complete heterochromia), or eyes with one iris having two different colors (sectoral heterochromia)

- A forelock of white hair ("poliosis"), or premature graying of the hair

- Appearance of wide-set eyes due to a prominent, broad nasal root ("dystopia canthorum")—particularly associated with Type I) also known as "telecanthus"

- Moderate to profound hearing loss (higher frequency associated with Type II);

- A low hairline and eyebrows that meet in the middle ("synophrys")

- Patches of white skin pigmentation, in some cases

- Abnormalities of the arms, associated with Type III

- neurologic manifestations, associated with Type IV

- Cleft lip, mostly associated with Type I

Waardenburg syndrome has also been associated with a variety of other congenital disorders, such as intestinal and spinal defects, elevation of the scapula and cleft lip and palate. Sometimes this is concurrent with Hirschsprung disease.

Majewski's polydactyly syndrome, also known as polydactyly with neonatal chondrodystrophy type I, short rib-polydactyly syndrome type II, and short rib-polydactyly syndrome, is a lethal form of neonatal dwarfism characterized by osteochondrodysplasia (skeletal abnormalities in the development of bone and cartilage) with a narrow thorax, polysyndactyly, disproportionately short tibiae, thorax dysplasia, hypoplastic lungs and respiratory insufficiency. Associated anomalies include protruding abdomen, brachydactyly, peculiar faces, hypoplastic epiglottis, cardiovascular defects, renal cysts, and also genital anomalies. Death occurs before or at birth.

The disease is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern.

It was characterized in 1971.

Autoimmune polyendocrine syndromes (APSs), also called autoimmune polyglandular syndromes (APSs), polyglandular autoimmune syndromes (PGASs), or polyendocrine autoimmune syndromes, are a heterogeneous group of rare diseases characterized by autoimmune activity against more than one endocrine organ, although non-endocrine organs can be affected.There are three types of APS or (in terms that mean the same thing) three APSs, and there are a number of other diseases which have endocrine autoimmunity.

The symptoms of Sly syndrome are similar to those of Hurler syndrome (MPS I). The symptoms include:

- in the head, neck, and face: coarse (Hurler-like) facies and macrocephaly, frontal prominence, premature closure of sagittal lambdoid sutures, and J-shaped sella turcica

- in the eyes: corneal opacity and iris coloboma

- in the nose: anteverted nostrils and a depressed nostril bridge

- in the mouth and oral areas: prominent alveolar processes and cleft palate

- in the thorax: usually pectus carinatum or exacavatum and oar-shaped ribs; also a protruding abdomen and inguinal or umbilical hernia

- in the extremities: talipes, an underdeveloped ilium, aseptic necrosis of femoral head, and shortness of tubular bones occurs

- in the spine: kyphosis or scoliosis and hook-like deformities in thoracic and lumbar vertebrate

- in the bones: dysostosis multiplex

In addition recurrent pulmonary infections occur. Hepatomegaly occurs in the gastrointestinal system. Splenomegaly occurs in the hematopoietic system. Inborn mucopolysaccharide metabolic disorders due to β-glucuronidase deficiency with granular inclusions in granulocytes occurs in the biochemical and metabolic systems. Growth and motor skills are affected, and mental retardation also occurs.

Hyperprolactinemic SAHA syndrome is a cutaneous condition characterized by lateral hairiness, oligomenorrhea, and sometimes acne, seborrhea, FAGA I, and even galactorrhea.

The three most common symptoms of Opitz G/BBB syndrome (both type I & II) are hypertelorism (exceptionally wide-spaced eyes), laryngo-tracheo-esophalgeal defects (including clefts and holes in the palate, larynx, trachea and esophagus) and hypospadias (urinary openings in males not at the tip of the penis) (Meroni, Opitz G/BBB syndrome, 2012). Abnormalities in the larynx, trachea and esophagus can cause significant difficulty breathing and/or swallowing and can result in reoccurring pneumonia and life-threatening situations. Commonly, there may be a gap between the trachea and esophagus, referred to as a laryngeal cleft; which can allow food or fluid to enter the airway and make breathing and eating a difficult task.

Genital abnormalities like a urinary opening under the penis (hypospadias), undescended testes (cryptorchidism), underdeveloped scrotum and a scrotum divided into two lobes (bifid scrotum) can all be commonplace for males with the disease.

Developmental delays of the brain and nervous system are also common in both types I and II of the disease. 50% of people with Opitz G/BBB Syndrome will experience developmental delay and mild intellectual disability. This can impact motor skills, speech and learning capabilities. Some of these instances are likened to autistic spectrum disorders. Close to half of the people with Opitz G/BBB Syndrome also have a cleft lip (hole in the lip opening) and possibly a cleft palate (hole in the roof of the mouth), as well. Less than half of the people diagnosed have heart defects, imperforate anus (obstructed anal opening), and brain defects. Of all the impairments, female carriers of X-linked Type I Opitz G/BBB Syndrome usually only have ocular hypertelorism.

Blepharophimosis, ptosis, epicanthus inversus syndrome or BPES is a rare disease characterized by the conditions it is named after: blepharophimosis, ptosis, and epicanthus inversus.

X-linked type I Opitz G/BBB Syndrome is diagnosed on clinical findings, but those findings can vary greatly: even within the same family. Manifestations of X-linked type I are classified in the frequent/major findings and minor findings that are found in less than 50% of individuals.

The three major findings that suggest a person has X-linked Type I Opitz G/BBB Syndrome:

1. Ocular hypertelorism (~100% cases)

2. Hypospadias (85-90% cases)

3. Laryngotracheoesophageal abnormalities (60-70%)

Minor findings found in less than 50% of individuals:

1. Developmental delay (especially intellectually)

2. Cleft lip/palate

3. Congenital heart defects

4. Imperforate (blocked) anus

5. Brain defects (especially corpus callosum)

In 1989, Hogdall used ultrasonographs to diagnose X-linked Type I Opitz G/BBB Syndrome after 19 weeks of pregnancy, by identifying hypertelorism (widely-spaced eyes) and hypospadias (irregular urinary tract openings in the penis).

There is also molecular genetic testing available to identify mutations leading to Opitz G/BBB Syndrome. X-linked Type I testing must be done on MID1, since this is the only gene that is known to cause Type I Opitz G/BBB Syndrome. Two different tests can be performed: sequence analysis and deletion/duplication analysis. In the sequence analysis a positive result would detect 15-50% of the DNA sequence mutated, while a deletion/duplication positive result would find deletion or duplication of one or more exons of the entire MID1 gene.

Diagnosis for "type 1" of this condition for example, sees that the following methods/tests are available:

- Endoscopic

- CT scan

- Histologic test

The most prominent symptoms of BPES are horizontally narrow eyes (blepharophimosis), drooping eyelids (ptosis), and a fold of skin running from the side of the nose to the lower eyelid (epicanthus inversus). Other common symptoms include lack of an eyelid fold, widely spaced eyes (telecanthus), low nose bridge, and ear malformations (including cupping and incomplete development). Rare symptoms include microphthalmos (abnormally small eyes), tear ducts in the wrong location, and high arched palate. Female infertility can occur with type I BPES.

Common relevant features of acrocephalosyndactyly are a high-arched palate, pseudomandibular prognathism (appearing as mandibular prognathism), a narrow palate, and crowding of the teeth.

The bare lymphocyte syndrome, type II (BLS II) is a rare recessive genetic condition in which a group of genes called major histocompatibility complex class II (MHC class II) are not expressed.

The result is that the immune system is severely compromised and cannot effectively fight infection. Clinically, this is similar to severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID), in which lymphocyte precursor cells are improperly formed. As a notable contrast, however, bare lymphocyte syndrome does not result in decreased B- and T-cell counts, as the development of these cells is not impaired.

Diarrhea can be among the associated conditions.
