The aetiopathogenesis of craniofacial anomalies
Abstract
Craniofacial embryogenesis with emphasis on the mechanisms of morphogenesis as a basis for understanding developmental anomalies is reviewed. A classification of maldevelopment into malformation, deformation and disruption is illustrated by examples. A brief review of the clinical consequences of craniofacial anomalies and possible therapeutic modalities is undertaken.
