Aarskog syndrome is a rare syndrome with a typical triad of facial, digital and genital characteristics. The characteristic cephalometric finding in this patient was the unusually large upward slant of SN plane and a steep Ba-N plane. Though the patient presented with a class I skeletal pattern, both the maxilla and mandible were hypoplastic and retruded with respect to the cranial base. Other characteristic features regarding the mandibular morphology were a large FMA (37 degrees) and Sn-GoGn (44 degrees) angles, a large gonial angle (138 degrees), an increase in total anterior facial and lower anterior facial height.
