Unilateral facial asymmetry: Do not forget to look at the subcutaneous tissue
Parry–Romberg syndrome is a rare cause of hemifacial atrophy with associated other systemic complaints including neurological symptoms. Diagnosis is based on history and clinical examination supported by imaging. Here, we report a case of a 10-year-old female presenting with gradually progressive left hemifacial atrophy for 2 years and describe the clinical and imaging findings of the patient.
