Stratton parker syndrome is a rare disorder characterized by short stature, wormian bones (extra cranial bones), and dextrocardia (displaced heart).[1] Other symptoms include dermatoglyphics, tooth deformities or missing teeth, abnormal kidney development, shortened limbs, mental retardation, undescended testes or cryptorchidism, and anal atresia.[1] The condition was first described by Stratton and Parker in 1989,[2] and there have been only four reported cases worldwide.[3] Two cases of the syndrome were reported by Gilles-Eric Seralini in 2010 after having been contacted in January 2009.[4]

Alternative names include "Growth Hormone Deficiency with Wormian Bones, Cardiac Anomaly, and Brachycamptodactyly"[5] and "Short stature wormian bones dextrocardia"[1]
