Apert Syndrome

Year 2013, Volume: 7 Issue: 2, 94 - 95, 01.08.2013

Abstract

Apert syndrome is characterized by craniosynostosis, hypertelorism, severe syndactyly of the hands and feet, and cardiac and renal abnormalities and develops as a result of a mutation in the fibroblast growth factor receptor genes (FGFR2) located on chromosome 10 (10q26). Here, we present a case of Apert’s syndrome with craniosynostosis, severe syndactyly of the hands and feet, and bilateral choanal stenosis
