Coarse facial features is a constellation of facial features that are present in many inborn errors of metabolism. Features include: large, bulging head
prominent scalp veins
"saddle-like, flat bridged nose with broad, fleshy tip"
large lips and tongue
small, widely spaced and/or malformed teeth
hypertrophic alveolar ridges and/or gums The head tends to be longer than normal from front to back, with a bulging forehead. This is because of the premature fusion of skull bones in the affected person
