Radiological insights into mandibuloacral dysplasia: A case report

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Mandibulo-acral dysplasia was first described by Young et al in 1971. It is a rare, autosomal genetic disorder describing characteristic general, craniofacial, and oral manifestations. However, the detailed characteristics of this multisystemic disease have not yet been clarified due to its rarity and the limited number of cases described. Through a clinical case, we have tried to expose some of the most common clinical and radiological signs especially in their bucco-facial location, some modalities of management and the importance of an early diagnosis which turns out to be a real challenge especially for dentists in their daily practice.
