Symmetric, Bilateral Auricular Calcifications in Twins With Noonan Syndrome.

Noonan syndrome (NS) is a rare, genetic multisystem disorder often presenting with associated craniofacial abnormalities. The authors report an identical twin pair with classical features of NS including short stature, mild ptosis, hypertelorism, down-slanting palpebral fissures, low-set angulated ears, and giant cell tumors in the craniofacial skeleton. Interestingly, these patients also presented with bilateral, symmetric, dystrophic auricular calcifications. Genome sequencing revealed identical germline son of sevenless homolog 1 mutations and inversion of chromosome 2 (p11.2q13). Awareness of the association of auricular calcifications and NS may help guide clinical management for these patients, particularly if auricular procedures are indicated.
