Abstract:
The incidence of the first and second branchial arch syndrome namely hemifacial microsomia (HFM) is the second only to cleft lip and palate, and it is a very common craniofacial developmental deformity. This congenital condition affects the development of the orbit, ear, and mandible, and the clinical manifestations of each patient are significantly heterogeneous. Clinical treatment needs to formulate corresponding treatment measures according to different degrees of tissue deformity at different ages. This article puts forward personal suggestions for the sequential treatment of oral and maxillofacial deformities of HFM from the perspective of patient age and classification.
