Study Notes

Hemifacial microsomia is a spectrum of disorders affecting the face, with a prevalence of 1:5500 live births.
It is characterized by varying degrees of hypoplasia or aplasia of facial structures derived from the first and second branchial arches.
Right side is more frequently affected than left, and boys are more affected than girls.
Etiology includes ischemia in the area of stapedian artery hematoma in utero (30-45 days IU) and teratogenic agents such as thalidomide, Accutane, and alcohol exposure.
Hemifacial microsomia is classified into different types based on the involvement and characteristics of the condyle.
Condylar hyperplasia is the most common type, affecting 60% of females and presenting with a rounded ondyle and increased length of the head and neck corpus. It is self-limiting and stops growing spontaneously.
Condylar hyperplasia Type IIA is characterized by vertical unilateral facial growth, increased head, neck, ramus, corpus, and a posterior open bite. It occurs around 20 years of age and has histology of osteochondroma with endless growth.
Condylar hyperplasia Type IIB presents with exophytic growth of the condylar head, occurring around 20 years of age with histology of osteochondroma and endless growth.
Other conditions and syndromes affecting growth include primary and secondary cartilages, sutures, bone components and metabolism, muscles, teeth, inner organs, cranial base, cranial vault, facial derivatives of the neural crest cells, pharyngeal arches, and neural crest territories.
Treacher Collins syndrome, Pierre Robin sequence, and achondroplasia are examples of other conditions affecting growth and development.
The diagnosis of orthodontic problems involves evaluating both intra-arch and inter-arch issues, including soft tissue esthetics.
Skeletal class I and II, dental class I and II, and Class III are diagnoses for skeletal and dental issues.
Horizontal and sagittal evaluations are important for assessing facial growth and development, including angles and dental compensations.
Vertical evaluations consider qualitative and quantitative factors, such as convergent planes and anterior and posterior facial heights and ratios.
