Craniofacial Clefts and Orbital Hypertelorism Flashcards

1
Q

Definitive surgical intervention for orbital hypertelorism
at which age?

A

Definitive surgical intervention for orbital hypertelorism
should wait until the orbit has reached maturity at least 5
to 7 years of age.

Q

What in investigation that we need to do in a mild form of median craniofacial hypoplasia ?

A

In patients with milder forms, assessing CNS anatomy in Median Craniofacial Hypoplasia is crucial with CT or magnetic resonance imaging to differentiate between lobar and alobar holoprosencephaly and to determine the integrity of the hypothalamic-pituitary axis

78
Q

distinguish hypertelorism from telecanthus (or pseudohypertelorism

A

Telecanthus is the widening of the intercanthal distance often a result of medial canthal tendon avulsion or nasoorbitalethmoid fracture. In telecanthus, the bony orbits are in a normal position.

the hyperteloric orbit is entirely
displaced and the bony distance between the orbits (interdacryon
distance) is increased. In addition to the horizontal vector, orbits can
be displaced vertically (orbital dystopia), anteriorly or posteriorly,
and rotationally.

79
Q

measurement of intradcrynon distance is best made radiographically or intraoperatively;

A

T

80
Q

Grading of hypertelorism

A

In an adult, the average interdacryon distance is 25 mm in a
female and 28 mm in a male. First-degree hypertelorism is 30 to 34 mm, second degree 34 to 40 mm,
and third degree is defined as an interdacryon distance ofgreater than 40 mm

81
Q

In children the measurement is different, how?

A

first-degree hypertelorism is defined as an interdacryon
distance 2 to 4 mm greater than normal, second degree is 4 to 8 mm
greater than normal, and third degree is more than 8 mm greater than
normal

82
Q

hypertelorism can be inherited?

A

yes Craniofrontonasal dysplasia is a unique inherited form of hypertelorism It occurs in both
inherited and sporadic forms

83
Q

The typical manifestations of an inherited form of hypertelorism ?

A

Include uni coronal or bi-coronal craniosynostosis, hypertelorism, bifid or absent nasal tip, widow’s peak, and wiry hair. Additionally, patients may
have cleft lip and/or palate and limb anomalies including syndactyly

84
Q

medial cranial clefts (nos. I 1-14), early
intervention is recommended.

A

T

85
Q

frontonasal dysplasia, frontoethmoidal
encephaloceles, or any of the medial cranial clefts (nos. I 1-14) why we should do early intervention ?

A

to reduce and separate the intracranial compartment from the paranasal sinuses. To avoid the dangerous
sequelae of an ascending CNS infection such as meningitis

86
Q

patients with significant
ocular involvement including eyelid deficiency or displacement may
require earlier intervention if eye lubrication is insufficient to prevent
corneal damage

A

t

87
Q

at which age the early intervention is considered?

A

as soon as the patient is old enough to tolerate
the procedure (>3 months)

88
Q

isolated perioral clefts (nos. 0-7) can
be performed at 3 to 6 months of age

A

T

89
Q

Nasal anomaly in peroral cleft should be treated in adulthood

A

F Nasal anomalies can be treated at the time of perioral
cleft repair however, patients with frontonasal dysplasia and disorganized accessory nasal cartilage may benefit from surgery at an older
age to minimize growth restriction

90
Q

dacryocystorhinostomyis indicated to which type of facial cleft?

A

Medial orbital (nos. 3/11 and
4/10) clefts may require dacryocystorhinostomy ifsymptomatic

91
Q

Bony anomalies should be reconstructed in a delayed manner

A

T Bony anomalies should be reconstructed in a delayed manner
unless causing functional impairment. In general, cranial bone grafts
are necessary to reconstruct the orbits, facial buttresses, and nose,
whereas cancellous iliac crest bone grafts can be used to treat persistent alveolar clefts.

92
Q

Repair of orbital dystopia and hypertelorism
should be done after 18 years

A

F. Repair of orbital dystopia and hypertelorism
should be avoided before school age and preferably performed at
orbital maturity (6-9 years ofage)

93
Q

The different types of surgical approaches in hypertelorism t treatmenmt?

A

When hypertelorism occurs, treatment should focus on safely
decreasing the interorbital distance to less than 17 mm by performing a box osteotomy or a facial bipartition

94
Q

What box osteotomy?

A

box osteotomy is limited to repositioning the orbits and the zygomas
and can effectively narrow the interorbital distance while preserving
midfacial and occlusal relationships

95
Q

What facial bipartition

A

a facial bipartition procedure is ideal for patients who, in addition to OHT, also have maxillary hypoplasia, a narrow maxillary arch, and malocclusion

96
Q

What is the meloschisis ?

A

Oral-ocular clefts do not disrupt the integrity of the nose. They occur lateral
to Cupid’s bow and extend through the cheek and maxillary process. This is called meloschisis

97
Q

Cleft number 4 can disrupt the nose.

A

F Cleft 4 is one of the oral-ocular clefts (4–6) which disrupt the mouth and eye but avoid disruption of the nose

98
Q

Cleft numbers 0 to 3, termed oral-nasal clefts, occur between the midline and Cupid’s bow, disrupting both the
lip and nose

A

T

99
Q

What is Treacher Collins syndrome ?

A

Bilateral oral ocular and lateral facial clefts are typically seen, and the airway is a major priority in these patients,
many of whom will require long-term tracheostomy placement. This is secondary to mandibular hypoplasia in
combination with a narrow pharynx

100
Q
