Hemifacial microsomia (HFM) is the second most common facial anomaly after cleft lip and palate. HFM is characterised by facial asymmetry, microtia, preauricular tags, macrostomia and cardiac defects. The majority of cases are sporadic, although autosomal dominant and recessive modes of inheritance have been reported. Here, the case of an 11-month-old boy with HFM and pulmonary hypoplasia, which is a rare association, is described. Pulmonary hypoplasia was detected during investigation of the patient for associated anomalies. He is currently on follow-up in the genetic clinic.
半侧颜面短小畸形(HFM)是仅次于唇腭裂的第二常见面部畸形。HFM的特征为面部不对称、小耳畸形、耳前赘生物、大口畸形和心脏缺陷。尽管有常染色体显性和隐性遗传模式的报道,但大多数病例为散发性。本文描述了一名11个月大患有HFM并伴有肺发育不全(一种罕见关联情况)的男童病例。在对该患者进行相关异常情况检查时发现了肺发育不全。他目前正在遗传门诊接受随访。
