Q87.0: Congenital malformation syndromes predominantly affecting facial appearance

You have a congenital disorder that has resulted in a change to your face, among other things.

This congenital disorder has meant that parts of your body have not developed properly, if at all. The condition can be hereditary. The condition can also affect other family members.

Various hereditary diseases can lead to a change in the face. For example, individual parts of the face may fail to form properly. The bones of the cranium or jaw can also be changed. The disorder may also affect other parts of the body or organs, such as the heart.
