The multiple pterygium syndrome is a rare condition which consists of pterygia of neck, antecubital, digital, popliteal, and intercrural areas, growth reteardation, peculiar facies, foot deformities, multiple joint contractures, vertebral anomalies. Here we report a girl with multiple pterygium syndrome. This case is a sporadic type because of mild symptom and no evidence in her family history. We believe this is the first reported case of the multiple pterygium syndrome in Japan.
