Congenital craniofacial anomalies are structural abnormalities resulting from improper growth or development of the skull and facial bones or soft tissues. They are broadly classified as deformities or malformations. Deformities occur due to external pressure or positioning before or after birth and may resolve on their own or require treatment. Malformations arise from errors in tissue or organ development, often linked to genetic or environmental factors. Early evaluation, including genetic assessment when required, is essential to confirm diagnosis and guide appropriate treatment planning and counselling.
Early correction of craniofacial abnormalities not only improves appearance but also supports normal brain growth, speech development, and psychosocial well-being.
