Craniofacial syndromes: Literature review and a proposed classification

Syndromes can potentially affect every part of the craniofacial system. While they have been described individually in the literature, there is lack of a classification system encompassing the entities affecting the craniofacial region. The purpose of this review was to provide clinicians an approach to categorize syndromes according to the morphostructural characteristics, which can aid in diagnostic ease and treatment planning.
