Prenatal detection of orofacial clefts
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Orofacial clefts are one of the most common congenital anomalies. The incidence is approximately 1 : 500 to 1 : 550 births [1]. The group of orofacial anomalies is heterogeneous. It comprises “typical” orofacial clefts ((cleft lip (CL), cleft lip and cleft palate (CLP) and cleft palate only (CP)) and “atypical” clefts (median, transversal, oblique and other Tessier’s types of facial clefts)[1]. The Tessier classification is an internationally accepted anatomical classification system that assigns a number to each cleft on the basis of its position relative to the sagittal midline [2]. An embryological-based classification was published by Mazzola R and Mazzola I [3].

متن کاملThe prevalence, penetrance, and expressivity of etiologic IRF6 variants in orofacial clefts patients from sub‐Saharan Africa
BACKGROUND Orofacial clefts are congenital malformations of the orofacial region, with a global incidence of one per 700 live births. Interferon Regulatory Factor 6 (IRF6) (OMIM:607199) gene has been associated with the etiology of both syndromic and nonsyndromic orofacial clefts. The aim of this study was to show evidence of potentially pathogenic variants in IRF6 in orofacial clefts cohorts f...
