Midface advancement in an adult patient with Crouzon syndrome: Modified LeFort III + LeFort I osteotomy accompanied by genioplasty and nasal dorsum augmentation
Crouzon syndrome is an autosomal dominant trait, leading to midface deficiency, undevelopedorbits, short nasal dorsum, and exophthalmos as the typical clinical features. Early correctionof craniofacial problems can improve patients ’ quality of life, but many of these patients withCrouzon syndrome are seeking treatment in older ages when they are missed for multidisciplinarymanagement and distraction technique in proper timing. Modified LeFort III osteotomy is one ofthe treatment options that can be used for proper resolution in adult patients. The present casereport study aims to describe a patient with midface deficien...
