Anorectal malformation (ARM) is one of the most common congenital anomaly that requires emergency surgery in the neonatal period. ARMs are frequently associated with other life threatening congenital anomalies. Commonly associated anomalies are genito-urinary, cardiovascular, gastro-intestinal, skeletal and spinal. Alimentary tract anomalies are frequently masked by the intestinal obstruction p...

Amelogenesis imperfecta is an autosomal dominant disorder. It is a group of hereditary diseases showing abnormal enamel density and crown malformation. This clinical report describes the oral rehabilitation of a young adult diagnosed with a variant of hypoplastic amelogenesis imperfecta with multiple impacted teeth and skeletal class III malocclusion. The treatment procedures of teeth extractio...

For the cleft patient presenting in adolescence with a jaw discrepancy and malocclusion, misinformation and limited available surgical and dental expertise often prevents a favorable facial reconstruction and dental rehabilitation. A major advantage of the modified Le Fort I osteotomy is its ability to simultaneously close cleft dental gap(s), resolve oronasal fistulas, manage skeletal defects,...

Basilar impression is a skeletal malformation characterized by translocation of the upper cervical spine and clivus into the foramen magnum, giving rise to various symptoms related to brainstem, upper spinal cord, and cerebellar compression. It is generally classified as primary (familial), in which the defect is unaccompanied by intrinsic abnormalities of bone, or as secondary, reflecting an i...

Osteopetrosis (OP) is hereditary X-linked, autosomal recessive (ARO), or autosomal dominant (ADO) skeletal disease. ARO has two subtypes, which are infantile malignant and intermediate type. ARO and X-linked OP have poor clinical outcome. ADO is called adult benign type because of the normal life expectancy, which has type I and type II. Here, the authors present an ADO patient with Chiari type...

Numerous monogenic causes of growth disorders have been identified. Inheritance of most disorders covered by this panel is autosomal recessive, but familial cutaneous telangiectasia and oropharyngeal predisposition cancer syndrome is considered to have autosomal dominant inheritance. This panel covers, but is not limited to, genes and disorders covered by the subpanels. and therefore enables ef...

BACKGROUND Internal carotid artery agenesis is a rare anomaly that can be clinically asymptomatic. Klippel-Feil syndrome is a skeletal malformation characterized by vertebral fusion. Presence of postaxial polydactyly is suggestive of an underlying syndrome. CASE REPORT We report a rare case of a 44-year-old patient with non-specific symptoms and an association between these three rare abnorma...

Mayer Rokitansky Kuster Houser syndrome (MRKH syndrome) is characterized by Mullerian duct structures agenesis, vaginal atresia being the commonest variant. It can be associated with renal, skeletal, spine and other malformations. Patient with Mayer Rokitansky syndrome has a varied presentation from newborn period to adolescence. Thorough investigations are required for classification of the sy...

Skeletal dysplasias are disorders associated with a generalized abnormality in the skeleton. The Gollop-Wolfgang complex (GWC) is a limb deficiency disorder and an unusual limb malformation with highly variable manifestations. Here we report an interesting case of a 5-month old male baby from India with Gollop-Wolfgang Complex showing bifurcation of the right femur, ectrodactyly of both feet, e...
