A Spectra of Facial and Auricular Anomaly: Brachial Arch Syndrome

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Hemifacial microsomia (HFM) is a congenital facial deformity involving the structures derived from first and second pharyngeal arches like temporomandibular joint, mandibular ramus and body, muscles of mastication, ear and sometimes facial nerve. HFM is the second most common developmental craniofacial anomaly after cleft lip and palate, which usually occurs unilaterally, but also may occur bilaterally. In the present article, we have reported a case of HFM in an 18 year old female with unilateral facial hypoplasia and deformed ear.
