Description

Frontonasal dysplasia-severe microphthalmia-severe facial clefting syndrome is a rare, genetic, orofacial clefting malformation syndrome characterized by severe frontonasal dysplasia with complete cleft palate, facial cleft, extreme microphtalmia and hypertelorism, frequently associated with eyelid colobomata, sparse or absent eyelashes/eyebrows, wide nasal bridge with hypoplastic alae nasi, low-set, posteriorly rotated ears and caudal appendage in the sacral region.

Most common symptoms of FRONTONASAL DYSPLASIA-SEVERE MICROPHTHALMIA-SEVERE FACIAL CLEFTING SYNDROME

  • Intellectual disability
  • Hypertelorism
  • Cleft palate
  • Cataract
  • Ptosis
