Summary

Kabuki syndrome acquired its name because the facial features of the children resembled the make-up of the actors in the traditional Kabuki theatre. Kabuki syndrome is often unrecognized in the newborn and it may take several years for the features to become obvious in the child.

Hints for Parents

No More Tears

Try using a foam visor to prevent shampoo and water from entering your child’s eyes!
