MISCELLANEOUS CASES. 137 



GEOUP IV. 



DEFORMED UPPER EXTREMITY, AND INTRA-UTERINE 

 AMPUTATIONS. 



Case 14. Fingers webbed Ears not symmetrical 

 Excessive epicanthic fold * Cerebral deficiency. 



Case 15. Deformed hand Intra-uterine ampu- 

 tation (?) No other defect. 



Case 16. Deformed arm Intra-uterine ampu- 

 tation (?) No other defect. 



Remarks on Group IV. Two of these cases pre- 

 senting defective upper extremities looked as if 

 they had been intra-uterine amputations, and 

 being traumatic, and accidental rather than de- 

 velopmental, it is not surprising that no other 

 defect coexisted. In Case 14 we see coexisting 

 defects. The asymmetry of the ears and the 

 webbed fingers were surely developmental defects, 

 and they were accompanied by defective develop- 

 ment of hands. 



GROUP V. 



MISCELLANEOUS CASES. 



Case 17. Double coloboma of iris No other 

 defect. 



Case 18. Congenital smallness of one eye No

Case 19. Deformity of right ear and temporal

* The terra " epicanthic" fold is applied to the portion of skin that 

 lies at the inner angle of the opening of the eyes towards the nose. 

 This is occasionally developed as a kind of web, called the 

 epicanthic fold.
