Abstract
Marcus Gunn Jaw Winking Sinkinezis (MGJWS), levator palpebra superior kasının, trigeminal sinirin çiğneme kaslarını innerve eden motor dalı tarafından aberran olarak innerve edilmesi ile ortaya çıkan bir fenomendir. Konjenital pitozlu hastalar arasında %4-6 oranında saptanmaktadır. Genellikle tek taraflı ve izole olarak görülmekle beraber literatürde çok az sayıda bilateral ya da sistemik veya oküler anomalilerin eşlik ettiği olgular da bulunmaktadır. Biz de pitoz ile başvuran ve MGJWS tanısı alan iki olgudan bahsettik.

Abstract
Marcus Gunn Jaw Winking Synkinedis (MGJWS) is caused by aberrant innervation of the levator palpebrae superioris muscle by a branch of the trigeminal nerve’s motor division that supplies mastication. This phenomenon is seen in 4 to 6% of congenital ptosis patients. MGJWS mostly occurs i an unilateral and isolated manner but it is less frequently bilateral and associated with ocular and systemic abnormalities. Here we describe two cases of children who presented with ptosis and were diagnosed with MGJWS

The publication language of Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease is English.
Manuscripts submitted to the Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease will go through a double-blind peer-review process. Each submission will be reviewed by at least two external, independent peer reviewers who are experts in the field, in order to ensure an unbiased evaluation process. The editorial board will invite an external and independent editor to manage the evaluation processes of manuscripts submitted by editors or by the editorial board members of the journal. The Editor in Chief is the final authority in the decision-making process for all submissions.

If the articles sent to the reviewers for evaluation are assessed as a senior for publication by the reviewers, the section editor and the editor considering all aspects (originality, high scientific quality and citation potential), it receives publication priority in addition to the articles assigned for the next issue.
The aim of the Turkish Journal of Pediatrics is to publish high-quality original research articles that will contribute to the international literature in the field of general pediatric health and diseases and its sub-branches. It also publishes editorial opinions, letters to the editor, reviews, case reports, book reviews, comments on previously published articles, meeting and conference proceedings, announcements, and biography. In addition to the field of child health and diseases, the journal also includes articles prepared in fields such as surgery, dentistry, public health, nutrition and dietetics, social services, human genetics, basic sciences, psychology, psychiatry, educational sciences, sociology and nursing, provided that they are related to this field. can be published.
