Abstract
The group of anomalies that affect the tongue, maxilla, and mandible—with or without limb anomalies—comes under the umbrella of the oromandibular limb hypogenesis syndrome. It is sporadically reported and has a very low incidence. There is no sex predilection for this congenital disease. We report a rare subtype of oromandibular limb hypogenesis syndrome in a young female who presented with impaired speech and deformity in the lower jaw.
