Bronchial asthma, recurrent croup and bronchiectasis in a child with Crouzon syndrome: clinical observation
Abstract
Crouzon syndrome (craniofacial dysostosis) is an autosomal dominant disorder, a form of craniosynostosis syndrome; characterized by premature closure of cranial sutures, midfacial hypoplasia, lower mandibular prognathism, marked proptosis and strabismus [1]. The eponymous name of the syndrome comes from the name of Octave Crouzon, the French neurologist, who first described a craniofacial dysostosis in a mother and her daughter in 1912 [2].
