The abnormalities associated with the face or the head of person is termed as craniofacial syndromes. The conditions may rise due to hereditary or congenital factor. These conditions lead to improper fusion of bones on the fetal head and face. Improper fusion of bones on the head and face produces disproportioned head and face as either the head fails to expand or contract. Most of the time the craniofacial abnormalities happen because of the developmental delay but, not all the times. These deformities are not only spotted on head and face but also on the other parts of the body as well.
One of the common craniofacial symptoms is acrocephalosyndactyly. A syndrome that is associated with this acrocephalosyndactyly is the apert syndrome. It is a rare syndrome, but the destruction would be large. It leads to unusual skull growth combined with widening of eyes and other defects. This syndrome is found to be more difficult to treat with as the entire improper fusion happens as the skull fuses prematurely resulting in retarded development of the face and skull. As the premature fusion have the tendency to occur on other parts of the body as well, this syndrome can produce hazardous effects on the baby.
Another syndrome that is well-known among people is the Crouzon syndrome. The skull becomes wide, the forehead high, jaw underdevelopment and eyeball protrusion are associated with this syndrome, making it even worse. All the abovementioned premature fusions may lead to developmental delay or to little development. Carpenter syndrome is a widely known rare syndrome occurring because of the closure of the sutures between skull bones. Also, the fusion of fingers is a possible phenomena related to this syndrome.
