Mandibular symphyseal midline distraction osteogenesis for micrognathia associated with aglossia and situs inversus totalis

Aglossia is a rare congenital abnormality, often associated with micrognathia and limb defects. Situs inversus totalis is also a rare congenital abnormality, defined as a mirror-image reversal of all the asymmetric organs of the thorax and abdomen. The concurrence of these two abnormalities has only been reported in eight similar cases in the literature. Although micrognathia and malocclusion were observed in all of these cases, few treatments were performed for the patients' dentofacial deformities.
