Abstract
Freeman-Sheldon syndrome, which is a very rare congenital malformation, is characterized by features of whistling face, ulnar deviation, and talipes equinovarus. Hypertelorism, epicanthus, hypoplastic nose, long philtrum and microstomia were all found on the face of the patient. Talipes equinovarus was also seen on the bilateral feet. In addition, wrist joint contractures and ulnar deviation were also observed on the patient's bilateral hands. Hypertelorism and epicanthus were all treated successfully by the Mustardé method and microstomia was repaired by Barsky's method. In the pathological investigation of the orbicularis oris muscle, the muscle bundle was also waved and partially replaced by collagen fibers.
