Auricular and dental findings of affected members of families with recessive FGF3 mutations. (A) Type I microtia with shortening of the superior portions of the auricles, overfolded helices and anteverted pinnae are shown as well as microdontia with conical, sharp and pointed lateral incisors (white arrows) in PKDF295 IV-1 and IV-2. (B) Type I microtia with shortening of the superior portions of the auricle caused by incomplete formation of the upper helix and helical crus. The antihelix and antihelical crura (black arrow) are relatively well developed. (C) Normal auricles of deaf individuals from family PKDF817. Some individuals, especially V-8 and V-10, show a milder dental phenotype compared with those in families PKDF295 and PKDF887.
