Marfanoid (or Marfanoid habitus) is a constellation of symptoms resembling those of Marfan syndrome, including long limbs, with an arm span that exceeds the height of the individual, and a crowded oral maxilla, sometimes with a high arch in the palate, arachnodactyly, and hyperlaxity.

Associated conditions include:

  • Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2B
  • Homocystinuria
  • Spontaneous pneumothorax
  • Ehlers-Danlos syndrome
  • Possibly Asperger syndrome
