The group of anomalies that affect the tongue, maxilla, and mandible—with or without limb anomalies—comes under the umbrella of the oromandibular limb hypogenesis syndrome. It is sporadically reported and has a very low incidence. There is no sex predilection for this congenital disease. We report a rare subtype of oromandibular limb hypogenesis syndrome in a young female who presented with impaired speech and deformity in the lower jaw.
