A surgical approach to the craniofacial defects of Opitz G/BBB syndrome

Opitz syndrome is a rare genetic disorder which has been well defined; however, the surgical treatment of the anomalies has not been codified. The objective is to review the literature and describe the surgical priorities in the treatment of Opitz syndrome. This report is unique in the fact that it...

description Opitz syndrome is a rare genetic disorder which has been well defined; however, the surgical treatment of the anomalies has not been codified. The objective is to review the literature and describe the surgical priorities in the treatment of Opitz syndrome. This report is unique in the fact that it describes a surgical approach to the treatment of the deformities. Better outcomes are achieved with preoperative analysis of the deformities and surgical planning. Simultaneous soft tissues and bony reconstruction with grafts can achieve long lasting results and decrease recurrence rates.
