Abstract
The Treacher Collins syndrome (TCS) is a dominant, autosomal craneofacial disorder. Its incidence is 1 in 25,000 to 50,000 live births. It’s caused secondary to mutations in the gen that codifies the treacle protein. Mala hipoplasia and anti mongoloid folds characterize it. The diagnosis is made by clinical examination and its treatment requires a multidisciplinary approach. This article makes a brief review of the STC and presents the case of a patient diagnosed and treated in the Hospital Universtario San Ignacio.
