    Author: Iosub S, Bamji M, Stone RK, Gromisch DS, Wasserman E.
    Journal: Pediatrics; 1987 Oct; 80(4):512-6. PubMed ID: 3658569.
    Abstract:
    Eight patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) or AIDS-related complex, ranging in age from 4 to 33 months, were evaluated for the presence of dysmorphic features recently described as human immunodeficiency virus embryopathy. Birth data and growth charts were available. Growth failure, a prominent box-like head, large wide eyes, and a well-formed philtrum were seen in the majority of patients. The significance of hypertelorism, obliquity of eyes, long palpebral fissures, blue scleras, depressed bridge of nose, and prominent upper vermilion border is discussed.
