Atypical orofacial conditions in Noonan syndrome: a case report

Noonan syndrome (NS) is a relatively common condition characterized by chest deformation, congenital heart disease, short stature and distinctive facial features. Due to its genetic heterogeneity NS patients exhibit a range of clinical signs. Severe gingivitis and supernumerary teeth are rarely seen in connection with NS. In addition, there has not been a report on NS patients with atypical bilateral enlargement of the mental foramens and inferior-alveolar canals. This case report describes a NS patient who has undergone growth hormone (GH) therapy and is presenting with classical and rare NS phenotypes.
