Abstract

Cleidocranial Dysplasia is a rare congenital syndrome that presents a wide range of expressions. This condition can affect the bones of both the endochondral and intramembranous origins, resulting in generalized skeletal disorders. The skeletal manifestations of this syndrome tend to cause important changes in the skull, spine and teeth of affected individuals. This paper reports a rare case of a 45-year-old patient with Cleidocranial Dysplasia with a fractured mandibular angle after a domestic accident, which was attended at Waldemar Alcantara General Hospital (HGWA).
