[Pyknodysostosis: extreme cause of sleep apnea].

We describe a twentieth month old infant who had a pycnodysostosis syndrome. This malformation shows a loss of the normal mandible angle with generalized bone hyperdensification. The first produced and airway obstruction, with special relevance during sleeping hours. A polysomnography revealed an obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. The respiratory picture deteriorated with worsening of the airway obstruction, hypoxemia and finally pulmonary hypertension and cor pulmonale. A tracheostomy was performed, with resolution of the sleep apnea and pulmonary hypertension. The etiology, pathophysiologic consequences and surgical treatment of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is reviewed.

[Congenital monomorph adenoma of the parotid gland (author's transl)].

Congenital monomorph tubular adenoma is a very infrequent tumor. Usually diagnosis is an operative finding. Together with its' infrequency, rapid rate of growth, differential diagnosis with other vascular tumors, specially cystic lymphangioma, and its surgical excision avoiding lesion of the facial nerve, account for this publication.

[Iatrogenic evolutive skull fracture (author's transl)].

A case of growing skull fracture secondary to a maxilofacial operation is reported. Frequency, clinical symptoms, phisiopathology and treatment of growing skull fractures are reviewed and the rarity of the iatrogenic mechanism is stressed.

[Oral-facial-digital syndrome in male (author's transl)].

One case of oral-facial-digital syndrome (Papillon-Léage and Psaume) is presented. This is the second one reported on a patient with normal male karyotipe. Clinical data and genetic aspects are commented in relation with this new case in a 46 XY male.

[Embryoclinical correlation ofmaxillofacial abnormalities].

Most publications on maxillofacial malformation are based on their topography and terminology. The list of authors is endless in most cases there are only minor variants. Thus, we are attempting to establish the embryoclinical correlation of maxillofacial malformations produced by changes in the structures of the cephalic pole of the embryo. For such systematization we have considered the following items: 1. Changes in the frontal structure. 2. Changes in upper maxillary structures. 3. Changes in the lower maxillary or mandibular structures. 4. Pathologic associations. In each of these buttons, the structures produced or correlated with them are subsequently analyzed, the same as basic changes and clinical syndromes produced by them and resulting in an embryoclinical systematization.
