ABSTRACT

Roberts syndrome is a genetic disorder described by John Roberts in 1919 also known as pseudothalidomidic or phocomelia (severe limb shortening) which is characterized by limb and craniofacial abnormalities. Case report: The present paper exposes the case of a female five-year-old patient with cleft palate sequelae, absence of right thoracic limb, left thoracic limb hypoplasia, oligodactyly, focomelia, congenital heart disease and dentofacial anomaly (laterognatia). Material and methods: The Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery service decides to proceed with a mandibular distraction osteogénesis (MDO) process to correct laterognatia which is achieved satisfactorily. Results: Successful osteogenesis is achieved which is reflected in an improvement of aesthetic and functional patterns. Conclusions: This kind of treatment should be carried out at an early age considering the benefits on the patient, considering that other treatments will be necessary later.
