SEVERE FORM OF FRONTONASAL DYSPLASIA (FND) WITH BILATERAL ANOPHTHALMIA A Case Report with Review of Literature
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Frontonasal Dysplasia (FND) is a rare disorder characterized by deformities of variable severity affecting the craniofacial region. FND with bilateral anophthalmia has not been reported yet in the literature. Maxillofacial surgery should be considered for all patients for whom improvement is possible. But in countries like Pakistan where there are considerable limitations in provision of social services, with economic and educational constraints, correction of such major defects remains a challenging task. In this report in an infant a very severe form of frontonasal dysplasia with bilateral anophthalmia with review of literature is presented.
