Hapsburg jaw, a mandibular prognathous jaw, often accompanied by a thick overdeveloped lower lip (Hapsburg lip), as seen in many members of the Hapsburg family of European nobility.

'HAPSBURG JAW'
Mandibular prognathism was transmitted through many generations of the Hapsburg line as a simple dominant (Rubbrecht, 1930; Strohmayer, 1937). We have observed a dominant inheritance pattern in a black family. Involvement in 4 generations was described by Stiles and Luke (1953). An apparent conductor did not show the condition. Mandibular prognathism is a feature of the XXY, XXXY, and XXXXY syndromes and of interest is the progressive increase of this feature as the number of X chromosomes increases (Gorlin et al., 1965). Although the X chromosome has a role, the mendelian trait is not X-linked. Thompson and Winter (1988) described affected individuals in 3 generations. They pointed out that in addition to mandibular prognathism, there is thickened lower lip, flat malar areas, and mildly everted lower eyelids. One child in the family had craniosynostosis.
Wolff et al. (1993) assembled an extraordinary pedigree covering 23 generations and comprising 13 European noble families with mandibular prognathism. Pedigree analysis using the Elston-Stewart algorithm yielded a maximum likelihood estimate of penetrance of 95.5%.
Chudley (1998) presented examples of the Habsburg jaw printed on postage stamps of Spain.

here are bits of Arnold Schwarzenegger he didn't get from working out. The Arnold face is a tribute to some of the best reconstruction around. (It's enlightening to compare the young Arnie of Pumping Iron days with the sleek Hollywoodized version.)
"He's had his jaw moved back--it's called genioplasty," says a prominent L.A. surgeon. "He used to have that jutting Hapsburg jaw, but it's all gone. He's also had his eyes done, and he keeps on tinkering--every few years or so."
