Abstract :
Hemifacial microsomia is a rare congenital malformation of craniofacial structures. Its characteristic features are unilateral underdevelopment of the
face and ear malformations. This study describes clinical and radiographical features of a rare case of a 4-year-old hemifacial microsomia patient with underdevelopment of the left side of the face and preauricular skin tags on the affected side. Management of these patients requires a multidisciplinary
approach to provide the most effective and appropriate treatment.
