Unveiling the Rare Facets of Oral Manifestations of Radial Ray Syndrome: A Case Report
Radial Ray Syndrome (RRS) is a rare congenital anomaly characterised by non progressive horizontal ophthalmoplegia and various systemic features, including abnormalities of the thumb, radial-sided carpals, and metacarpals. To date, there are not many documented cases that report oral manifestations associated with RRS. Hereby, the authors present a case of an 18-year-old female diagnosed with RRS. The patient exhibited skeletal Class III malocclusion, with maxillary retrusion and mandibular protrusion, counter-clockwise mandibular rotation, asymmetrical mandibular condyles, and multiple dental caries. A posteroanterior X-ray revealed asymmetry in the craniofacial structure. This case report aims to highlight the oral manifestations observed in a patient with RRS.
