Abstract/OtherAbstract:
We report a very rare case of anomaly in the maxillofacial region. This case is a patient with a cleft palate who had Simpson-Golabi-Behmel syndrome. This X-linked symptom was first described by Simpson et al in 1975 and is characterized by prenatal and postnatal overgrowth, as well as visceral and skeletal anomalies. The syndrome consists of a distinctive facial appearance with wide nasal bridge, anteverted nostrils, wide-open mouth, enlarged tongue, and large protruding maxilla and jaw. The cleft palate was repaired surgically using the push-back method.
