Postoperatively, the patient presented occasional nocturnal apnea, despite of permeable choanae. [scielo.br]

External ear abnormalities, such as microtia or anotia, atresia of the external auditory canal and anomalies of the ossicular chain are often present (60%) and lead to conductive hearing loss. Intelligence is usually normal. [orpha.net]

This article makes a brief review of the STC and presents the case of a patient diagnosed and treated in the Hospital Universtario San Ignacio. Key words: Mandibulofacial dysostosis, zygoma anomalies. [go.gale.com]

THE PRESENT conception of mandibulo-facial dysostosis (Treacher-Collins syndrome) has been formulated primarily by Franceschetti,1,2 Zwahlen,1 and Klein.2 There has been considerable controversy as to the first person to describe this syndrome since Thomson [jamanetwork.com]

• Dentist

  Care will usually involve several different health professionals, such as: A Paediatrician An Orthodontist A Dentist A Skull and Face Surgeon A Speech Therapist A Geneticist Nurses An Eye doctor A Hearing Specialist An Ear, Nose, and Throat Specialist [physio-pedia.com]

  Pediatricians, pediatric ear, nose and throat specialists (pediatric otolaryngologists), pediatric dentist, pediatric nurse, plastic surgeon, speech pathologists, audiologists, ophthalmologists, psychologists, geneticists, and other healthcare professionals [rarediseases.org]

• Eruptions

  Additional dental abnormalities have also been reported including missing teeth (tooth agenesis), clouding or discoloration of the enamel of teeth (enamel opacity), and improper (ectopic) eruption of certain upper teeth (maxillary molars). [rarediseases.org]

• Strabismus

  Additional symptoms include a lower eyelid notch or cleft of missing lid tissue (lid coloboma), partial absence of eyelashes on the lower eyelid, crossed eyes (strabismus) and narrowed tear ducts (dacrostenosis). [rarediseases.org]

• Visual Impairment

  An instrument (ophthalmoscope) is used to visualize the interior of the eye to detect any possibility of visual impairment. [rarediseases.org]

• No Speech Development

  TCS may also cause a delay in motor and speech development. This condition can make it hard to breathe, sleep, eat, and hear. Problems with the teeth and dry eyes can lead to infections. Life can be hard for people with TCS. [physio-pedia.com]

  Speech and language development can be compromised by hearing loss, cleft palate or jaw and airway problems. [rarediseases.org]

  Treacher Collins syndrome is a rare, genetic condition affecting the way the face develops — especially the cheekbones, jaws, ears and eyelids. These differences often cause problems with breathing, swallowing, chewing, hearing and speech. [seattlechildrens.org]

The pediatrician guides your child’s treatment and decides if other specialists are needed. [seattlechildrens.org]

And no one treatment is best for everyone who has it. That’s because each case is different. It depends on the problems your child has or may have in the future. [physio-pedia.com]

The diagnosis is made by clinical examination and its treatment requires a multidisciplinary approach. This article makes a brief review of the STC and presents the case of a patient diagnosed and treated in the Hospital Universtario San Ignacio. [go.gale.com]

Prognosis The prognosis for milder forms of the disease is favorable with adequate treatment. The documents contained in this web site are presented for information purposes only. [orpha.net]

In some cases, the prognosis depends on the specific symptoms and severity of the affected person. For example, very severe cases of TCS can cause perinatal death because of a compromised airway. [physio-pedia.com]

Etiology The syndrome is caused by mutations in the TCOF1 gene (5q32) encoding the nucleolar phosphoprotein Treacle or in the POLR1C (6p21.1) or POLR1D (13q12.2) genes, coding for RNA polymerase I and III subunits. [orpha.net]

Exercise can prevent age-related changes to muscles, bones and joints and can reverse these changes too. A person with amyloidosis produces aggregates of insoluble protein that cannot be eliminated from the body. [betterhealth.vic.gov.au]

Researchers are exploring ways to inhibit p53 function or block the mechanisms that lead to p53 activation as possible therapeutic treatments to prevent the development of TCS. [rarediseases.org]
