Rare dental manifestation in Simpson-Golabi-Behmel syndrome
Abstract:
Simpson-Golabi-Behmel syndrome (SGBS) is a rare X-linked recessive overgrowth disorder with prominent craniofacial manifestations. Macrodontia is also an uncommon dental anomaly that can be an isolated finding and has been associated with numerous systemic conditions and syndromes. This case report describes this previously unreported dental anomaly, macrodontia, in a patient with SGBS, which may broaden the phenotype of this syndrome. A brief review of the literature on orofacial findings associated with SGBS is also presented.
