In 1912, a French neurologist, Octave Crouzon (1874-1938) first described the crouzon syndrome and in 1937 Atkinson reviewed eighty six cases that were published and found about 67% of the cases were familial and 33% were sporadic, representing new mutations. Crouzon syndrome has a prevalence of 15-16% in one million new born and 4.5% of all craniosynostosis. Here we present a case of crouzon syndrome in 6 year old boy with review of literature.
