* Tall, thin, "[[Marfan syndrome|marfanoid]]" body build, in which long bones are disproportionately elongated
* Masses beneath [[mucosal]] surfaces in the [[mouth]], [[lip]]s, and [[eye]]s. Numerous yellowish-white, sessile, painless [[Nodule (medicine)|nodules]] on the [[lip]]s or [[tongue]], with deeper lesions having normal coloration. There may be enough [[neuroma]]s in the [[body]] of the [[lip]]s to produce enlargement and a "blubbery [[lip]]" appearance. Similar [[Nodule (medicine)|nodules]] may be seen on the [[sclera]] and [[eyelid]]s
