Abstract
Crouzon syndrome is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder characterized by craniofacialsynostosis. It is caused by genetic mutation in fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 and 3, located on chromosome 10q25-26. Considering the general paucity of cases in our Indian literature, we present this case report of a 50 year old female with features of Crouzon syndrome.
