Opitz syndrome
Opitz syndrome is a rare genetic disorder that affects physical development, leading to certain facial features, such as a prominent forehead, a flattened nasal bridge, and a wide-spaced appearance of the eyes. It can also cause abnormalities in the structure of the throat, heart, and other organs, resulting in various health challenges. The condition varies in severity and can be inherited or happen spontaneously. Management often involves a team of specialists to address specific medical issues, improve function, and support quality of life. While there's no cure, early intervention can help manage symptoms and associated complications.
