Presentation
INTRODUCTION: Young children with severe mandibular hypoplasia usually present with varying degrees of peripheral airway obstruction and difficulty with feeding. Early treatment is important for such children. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Proteus syndrome, Morquio syndrome, and auriculocondylar syndrome. [6] The present case lacked other clinical features of these syndromes. [jiaomr.in]
The presented case began when a female 15-year-old patient searched a dentist, a specialist in functional orthopedics of the jaws, complaining of large skeletal asymmetry. [scielo.br]

Background : Micrognathia is usually associated with genetic syndromes, characterized by mandibular hypoplasia causing a receding chin. The overall incidence of micrognathia was 1 per 1600 births, makes it a rare case. [jprjournal.com]

Treatment
AIM OF THE WORK: To evaluate the long-term efficacy of intra-oral bilateral DO in the treatment of severe congenital mandibular hypoplasia in early childhood. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Discussion The treatment options available in the literature for the management of condylar hypoplasia depend on the age. [omicsonline.org]
Deferring treatment until the patient is closer to completion of facial growth (girls, 15 years old; boys, 17–18 years old) helps minimize subsequent contralateral normal growth effect on the treatment outcome. [drlarrywolford.com]

The treatment modalities for mandibular condylar hypoplasia vary dependent on the age of the patient. [mjdrdypu.org]
Prognosis
Prognosis Prognosis is variable and depends on the presence and severity of associated cardiovascular, neurological and other complications. [patient.info]
The overall prognosis is highly variable dependent on the presence of other associated anomalies. Distraction osteogenesis is a surgical procedure that may be helpful. [texaschildrens.org]

The prognosis is generally favourable. We present a very rare case report of bony fusion between the maxillary and mandibular alveoli without any other associated anomaly. [ispub.com]
Thus, corroborating above statements that hypoglossia with limb anomalies has a poor prognosis. Tongue is the most agile, adept and versatile appendage in the human body. [ijdr.in]
Etiology
• Cause is unknown, but local circulating problems, endocrine disturbances, and trauma have been suggested as possible etiologic factors. 38. [slideshare.net]
