MeSH	D000168

Acrocephalosyndactylia (or acrocephalosyndactyly) is the common presentation of craniosynostosis and syndactyly.^[1]

It has several different types:

A related term, "acrocephalopolysyndactyly" (ACPS), refers to the inclusion of polydactyly to the presentation. It also has multiple types:

type 1 - Noack syndrome. Now classified with Pfeiffer syndrome.^[6]
type 2 - Carpenter syndrome ^[7]
type 3 - Sakati-Nyhan-Tisdale syndrome ^[8]
type 4 - Goodman syndrome.^[9]^[10] Now classified with Carpenter syndrome.^[11]
type 5 - Pfeiffer syndrome

It has been suggested that the distinction between "acrocephalosyndactyly" versus "acrocephalopolysyndactyly" should be abandoned.^[12]
