Low-set, posteriorly rotated ears |
"Ears that are low-set (HP:0000369) and posteriorly rotated (HP:0000358)." [HPO:probinson] |
This bundled term is left for convenience because of its common use in the literature. It is preferable to code each feature separately. |

Anosmia |
"An inability to perceive odors. This is a general term describing inability to smell arising in any part of the process of smelling from absorption of odorants into the nasal mucous overlying the olfactory epithelium, diffusion to the cilia, binding to olfactory receptor sites, generation of action potentials in olfactory neurons, and perception of a smell."

Patent ductus arteriosus |
"In utero, the ductus arteriosus (DA) serves to divert ventricular output away from the lungs and toward the placenta by connecting the main pulmonary artery to the descending aorta. A patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in the first 3 days of life is a physiologic shunt in healthy term and preterm newborn infants, and normally is substantially closed within about 24 hours after bith and completely closed after about three weeks. Failure of physiologcal closure is referred to a persistent or patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). Depending on the degree of left-to-right shunting, PDA can have clinical consequences."

Dandy-Walker malformation |
"A congenital brain malformation typically characterized by incomplete formation of the cerebellar vermis, dilation of the fourth ventricle, and enlargement of the posterior fossa. In layman's terms, Dandy Walker malformation is a cyst in the cerebellum (typically symmetrical) that is involved with the fourth ventricle. This may interfere with the ability to drain cerebrospinal fluid from the brain, resulting in hydrocephalus. Dandy Walker cysts are formed during early embryonic development, while the brain forms. The cyst in the cerebellum typically has several blood vessels running through it connecting to the brain, thereby prohibiting surgical removal." [HPO:probinson, PMID:26246090] |

Global developmental delay |
"A delay in the achievement of motor or mental milestones in the domains of development of a child, including motor skills, speech and language, cognitive skills, and social and emotional skills. This term should only be used to describe children younger than five years of age." [DDD:hvfirth, HPO:sdoelken] |
Developmental retardation is any significant lag in development in the any or all of the physical, cognitive, behavioral, emotional, or social spheres. Note that the term intellectual disability (mental retardation) refers to not merely a delay in development but rather a permanent limitation. Note that the term 'psychomotor retardation' is also used in some contexts to refer to a slowing of thought and physical movements as a result of major depression or intoxication. |

Overfolded helix |
"A condition in which the helix is folded over to a greater degree than normal. That is, excessive curling of the helix edge, whereby the free edge is parallel to the plane of the ear." [HPO:probinson, PMID:19152421] |
This is most often seen in the superior helix where it must be distinguished from a Lop ear (where the usual convexity of the posterior border of the ear is lost). Helix folding is highly variable. |

Intellectual disability |
"Subnormal intellectual functioning which originates during the developmental period. Intellectual disability, previously referred to as mental retardation, has been defined as an IQ score below 70." [HPO:probinson] |
This term should be used for children at least five years old. For younger children, consider the term Global developmental delay (HP:0001263). |

The presence of a single cerebral ventricle (instead of the usual four) may be seen as part of holoprosencephaly. |

Depressed nasal bridge |
"Posterior positioning of the nasal root in relation to the overall facial profile for age." [PMID:19152422] |
The adjective "depressed" here does not indicate an active process but a status. A depressed nasal bridge can occur irrespective of the width of the nasal bridge, and the width should be assessed independently. In infancy, the nasal bridge is relatively more posterior than in the older person. The term depressed nasal bridge should only be used when the bridge is more posterior than is typical for age and ethnic background. |

Talipes means (a deformity of) foot and ankle. There are four types of talipes.\n1) Talipes equinovarus - the foot is pointing inwards and down (the most common form)\n2) Talipes equinovalgus - where the foot points outwards and down\n3) Talipes calcaneovarus - where the foot points inwards and up\n4) Talipes calcaneovalgus - where the foot points inwards and down. |

Narrow mouth |
"Distance between the commissures of the mouth more than 2 SD below the mean. Alternatively, an apparently decreased width of the oral aperture (subjective)." [PMID:19125428] |
The width of the mouth varies with facial movement and must be assessed when the subject has a relaxed (neutral) face. This term replaces microstomia, small oral aperture, and small mouth because the reduced opening of the mouth is secondary to reduced width. |
