Craniofacial Abnormalities

Mowat-Wilson Syndrome (MWS) is a rare syndrome characterized by the presence of facial gestalt and delayed psychomotor development, variably associated with intellectual disability, epilepsy, Hirschsprung's disease (HSCR) and multiple congenital malformations. Although there is evidence of the presence of dental and craniofacial anomalies in MWS, little epidemiological data is available to date. The goal of this observational study is to assess oral health and dento-facial phenotype of people affected by Mowat-Wilson Syndrome (MWS). In addition, the Oral Health Related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) will be investigated.

FACE.S-4-KIDS is an ambitious database project addressing the scientific question of the variable expression of craniofacial disorders in humans, to reach a sound clinical management (diagnosis, prognosis), and the establishment of personalised treatment plans.

This retrospective observational study aims to evaluate postoperative respiratory complications (PORC) after (adeno)tonsillectomy in children with OSA. In order to increase the number of patients available for analysis, we will merge data collected at UZA with data collected at the the Department of Sleep Laboratory and Sleep Surgery at the Heim Pal National Pediatric Institute, Hungary. These colleagues performed an identical prospective data collection.
