Abstract:
Hutchinson - Gilford Progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a very rare syndrome characterized by early onset senescence. It is manifested as premature aging with involvement of hair, skin, nail, cardiovascular and bone manifestations. This syndrome has also been reported to be associated with craniofacial anomalies. With regard to these craniofacial phenotypes of Hutchinson - Gilford Progeria syndrome several studies are being undertaken all around the world. Here we present one such rare case of HGPS associated with craniofacial anomaly along with cleft lip and cleft palate in an eleven year old boy.

01:27Cranial Bones: Lateral View
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...
01:22Sutures of the Skull
Sutures are immobile joints between adjacent bones of the skull. The narrow gap between the bones is filled with dense, fibrous connective tissue that unites the bones. The long sutures located between the skull bones are not straight but instead follow irregular, tightly twisting paths. These twisting lines tightly...
