Q

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

78
distinguish hypertelorism from telecanthus (or pseudohypertelorism
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
measurement of intradcrynon distance is best made radiographically or intraoperatively;
T
80
Grading of hypertelorism
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
In children the measurement is different, how?
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
hypertelorism can be inherited?
yes Craniofrontonasal dysplasia is a unique inherited form of hypertelorism It occurs in both inherited and sporadic forms
83
The typical manifestations of an inherited form of hypertelorism ?
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
medial cranial clefts (nos. I 1-14), early intervention is recommended.
T
85
frontonasal dysplasia, frontoethmoidal encephaloceles, or any of the medial cranial clefts (nos. I 1-14) why we should do early intervention ?
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
patients with significant ocular involvement including eyelid deficiency or displacement may require earlier intervention if eye lubrication is insufficient to prevent corneal damage
t
87
at which age the early intervention is considered?
as soon as the patient is old enough to tolerate the procedure (>3 months)
88
isolated perioral clefts (nos. 0-7) can be performed at 3 to 6 months of age
T
89
Nasal anomaly in peroral cleft should be treated in adulthood
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
dacryocystorhinostomyis indicated to which type of facial cleft?
Medial orbital (nos. 3/11 and 4/10) clefts may require dacryocystorhinostomy ifsymptomatic
91
Bony anomalies should be reconstructed in a delayed manner
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
Repair of orbital dystopia and hypertelorism should be done after 18 years
F. Repair of orbital dystopia and hypertelorism should be avoided before school age and preferably performed at orbital maturity (6-9 years ofage)
93
The different types of surgical approaches in hypertelorism t treatmenmt?
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
What box osteotomy?
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
What facial bipartition
a facial bipartition procedure is ideal for patients who, in addition to OHT, also have maxillary hypoplasia, a narrow maxillary arch, and malocclusion
96
What is the meloschisis ?
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
Cleft number 4 can disrupt the nose.
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
Cleft numbers 0 to 3, termed oral-nasal clefts, occur between the midline and Cupid’s bow, disrupting both the lip and nose
T
99
What is Treacher Collins syndrome ?
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
In Treacher Collins Syndrom patient can have ptosis
F Upper eyelid surgery may be required as patients have an excess of upper eyelid skin laterally giving a false impression of ptosis
101
In Treacher Collins Syndrom patient may need rhinoplasty
