| Popis: |
The Saethre-Chotzen syndrome is among the hereditary craniosynostosis that is characterized by an early unilateral or bilateral synostosis of the coronal sutures, facial asymmetry, ptosis and sometimes strabismus. The case of a 10-year-old female patient is presented with craniostenosis provoking skull asymmetry, plagiocephaly and facial asymmetry with left palpebral ptosis. Because of the frequency of craniosynostosis, an early diagnosis is necessary to perform a timely intervention for an accurate treatment and multidisciplinary follow-up, in order to complete an adequate genetic counseling to these families. |
