Deviations in the growth of the mandibular condyle can affect both the functional occlusion
and the aesthetic appearance of the face. The reasons for these growth deviations are …

This review provides an overview of the state and future directions of development and
pathology in the craniofacial complex in the context of Cranial Neural Crest Cells (CNCC) …

Almost 50% of patients with Apert, Crouzon or Pfeiffer syndrome develop obstructive sleep
apnea (OSA), mainly due to midface hypoplasia. Midface advancement is often the …

The Fgfr2c C342Y/+ Crouzon syndrome mouse model carries a cysteine to tyrosine
substitution at amino acid position 342 (Cys342Tyr; C342Y) in the fibroblast growth factor …

Introduction Disordered craniofacial development frequently results in definitive facial
asymmetries that can significantly impact a person's social and functional well-being. The …

This meta-analysis aims to compare Apert syndrome (AS) patients with non-AS populations
(not clinically or genetically diagnosed) on craniofacial cephalometric characteristics (CCC) …

Purpose Craniosynostostic syndromes are due to multisuture synostoses and affect the
entire craniofacial skeleton. This study analyzed the facial complex and airways to quantify …

Syndromic craniosynostoses are defined by the premature fusion of one or more cranial and
facial sutures, leading to skull vault deformation, and midfacial retrusion. More recently …

Background: Considerable craniofacial features of Crouzon syndrome are attributed to the
dysmorphology of the cranial base. As cephalometric studies have focused mainly on the …

Objectives Fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) C342Y/+ mutation is a known cause
of Crouzon syndrome that is characterised by craniosynostosis and midfacial hypoplasia …
