Treacher Collins syndrome: a case report
Abstract
Treacher Collins Syndrome or mandibulofacial dysostosis is a rare congenital malformation involving first and second branchial arches and presents several craniofacial deformities. The occurrence of this syndrome is estimated to range between 1 in 40,000 to 1 in 70,000 live births. The syndrome is characterized by anomalies of the auricular pinna, hypoplasia of facial bones, antimongoloid slanting palpebral fissures, coloboma of the lower eyelids and cleft palate. Here we report a case of Treacher Collins Syndrome with a narrative review of the clinical features, radiographic findings, differential diagnosis and various treatment options.
