Crouzon syndrome or craniofacial dysostosis is a rare syndrome characterized by craniosynostosis, midfacial hypoplasia and exophthalmia. The abnormalities found in this syndrome change too much from case to case depending on the suture fusion order.

Molecular Landscape in Limb Anomalies: Diagnostic Yield and New Candidate Genes
In 132 individuals with limb anomalies, diagnostic yield was 36% (47/132), including 25 novel variants, three cases with new phenotypes, and two candidate loci, HOXA11 and a small 2q31.1 deletion. Mouse data and exome‐wide analysis, key in identifying the candidate loci, represent an important opportunity for gene discovery.

Crouzon Syndrome with Ocular Abnormalities: A Case Report [PDF]
Crouzon syndrome is a rare genetic disorder characterized by premature closure of cranial sutures, exophthalmos, beak-like nose and mid facial hypoplasia. It was initially described as hereditary syndrome of craniofacial synostosis.

Electrocardiographic variables in children with syndromic craniosynostosis and primary snoring to mild obstructive sleep apnea [PDF]
Background: In the spectrum of children with symptomatic sleep disordered breathing (SDB), some individuals – such as those with upper airway resistance syndrome (UARS) – do not have abnormalities on polysomnography (PSG).

A unique case of prenatal diagnosis of vascular Ehlers‐Danlos syndrome
Abstract We present a rare instance of prenatal diagnosis of vEDS without a family history. The suspicion of a genetic syndrome arose from an incidental ultrasound finding of a facial anomaly—previously associated with vEDS in adulthood but never described prenatally.

Relationships between cranial base synchondroses and craniofacial development: a review [PDF]
: Synchondrosis is defined as the development of a union between two bones by the formation of either hyaline cartilage or fibro-cartilage. This paper reviews the relationship between cranial base synchondroses and craniofacial development.

Objectives This study aimed to examine the association between pterygoid bone medialisation and treatment outcomes after upper airway surgery in three brachycephalic breeds. Materials and Methods Dogs that underwent CT of the head followed by routine surgery for brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome were recruited in this study.

Orthognathic Surgical Outcomes in Patients With and Without Craniofacial Anomalies [PDF]
Purpose The objective of this study is to examine hospitalization outcomes after orthognathic surgery. This study tests the hypothesis that patients with craniofacial anomalies have higher billed hospital charges, longer lengths of stay, and increased ...

Diagnostic value of exome and whole genome sequencing in craniosynostosis [PDF]
Background Craniosynostosis, the premature fusion of one or more cranial sutures, occurs in ~1 in 2250 births, either in isolation or as part of a syndrome. Mutations in at least 57 genes have been associated with craniosynostosis, but only a minority of
