Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Coronoid process hyperplasia (CPH) of the mandible can lead to restricted mouth opening and maxillofacial deformities, which have been hypothesized to be closely associated with genetics. This study investigated the relationship between congenital CPH and TGFB3 mutation in a family of patients with CPH. STUDY DESIGN: A limited mouth opening proband with CPH underwent whole-exome gene sequencing in...
