Fig. 2. Clinical Images of Individuals with SF3B2 haploinsufficiency.

Fig. 2

A. Photographs of three individuals demonstrating the shared phenotype. Proband 1 (c.2329dupG) demonstrates mandibular hypoplasia on the left, scar from preauricular skin tag excision on the right, and tragal duplication and facial skin tag on the left side prior to removal. Proband 2 (c.1780-2 A > -) demonstrates maxillary and mandibular hypoplasia on the right side in addition to bilateral tragal abnormalities. Proband 4-1 (c. 1608dupG) presented with maxillary and mandibular hypoplasia and tragal abnormality on the left side, and bilateral preauricular tags. B. Three-dimensional (3D) computed tomography (CT) reconstructions of the craniofacial skeleton of probands 2 and 3. Frontal, lateral, and submental views demonstrate maxillary and mandibular hypoplasia with resulting facial asymmetry. The third row demonstrates, from left to right, 3D CT scans of the cervical spine of Proband 1 and X-rays of Proband 2 and 3. Arrows in each figure indicate the cervical ribs. C. Photographs of family members with a shared SF3B2 startloss variant (p.M1?) demonstrating variable external ear phenotypes. Images of II:2 demonstrate a right ear markedly smaller than the left. Images of II:4 demonstrate a tragal abnormality and scar from prior preauricular skin tag removal, in addition to an epibulbar dermoid. III:3 presented with bilateral tragal abnormalities and tags (right side ear photo from childhood). Images of III:5 show an underdeveloped tragus. III:8 had tragal abnormality, scar from tag excision, right lateral oral cleft, and chin deviation due to mandibular hypoplasia.
