Treacher Collins syndrome (TCS) is a rare congenital craniofacial disorder with variable penetrance and high genetic and phenotypic heterogeneity. It is caused by pathogenic variants in the TCOF1, POLR1D, POLR1C, and POLR1B genes, and its major characteristic features are malar and mandibular hypoplasia, downward slanting of the palpebral fissures, and conductive hearing loss.
