The disease is characterized by a persistently open fontanelle and skull sutures, hypoplastic or aplastic clavicles, dental abnormalities, short stature, wide pubic symphysis and variety of other skeletal changes. We report a case of cleidocranial dysplasia in a 12 year old girl and emphasize on the importance of clinical examination findings.
