Abstract

Hemifacial Microsomia is a developmental craniofacial anomaly typically displaying reduced growth and development of half of the face as a result of abnormal development of first and second branchial arches. The patients with Hemifacial Microsomia usually exhibit unilateral involvement of the face but occasionally might involve both the sides. Cases which show vertebral anomalies and epibulbar dermoids have been considered to form a separate category within this condition . The condition is now known to be extremely complex and heterogenous. Here we present a case of Hemifacial Microsomia with its characteristic clinical and radiographic features that will help us in diagnosing and differentiating this rare entity from other closely related syndromes

Hemifasyal Mikrozomi: Olgu Sunumu ve Genel Bakış

Abstract

Hemifasyal mikrozomi tipik olarak birinci ve ikinci brankial arkların anormal gelişimi sonucu yüzün yarısında eksik büyüme ve gelişme gösteren gelişimsel kraniofasiyal bir anomalidir. Hemifasyal mikrozomi genellikle hastalarda yüzün tek bir tarafında ortaya çıkmaktayken nadiren her iki tarafıda içerdiği vakalarda mevcuttur. Vertebral anomali ve epibulbar dermoid gösteren vakalar ise bu durumlar içerisinde farklı bir kategoride değerlendirilir. Bu yapı oldukça kompleks ve heterojenite gösteren bir durum olarak bilinir. Burada; bilinen yakın ilişkili sendromlardan farklı olarak, bu nadir durumumun ayırt edilmesi ve teşhisi için bize yardımcı olacak karakteristik klinik ve radyografik özellikli Hemifasyal mikrozomili bir vaka sunulmaktadır.
