Frontonasal dysplasia
Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-004684
A congenital malformation syndrome characterized by abnormal development of the forehead, nose, and midface. This condition presents with a range of features including widely spaced eyes (hypertelorism), a broad nasal bridge, and a prominent forehead. It results from disruptions during early embryonic development of the craniofacial structures.
