Craniofacial and dental development in Costello syndrome

Abstract: Costello syndrome (CS) is a RASopathy characterized by a wide range of cardiac, musculoskeletal, dermatological, and developmental abnormalities. The RASopathies are defined as a group of syndromes caused by activated Ras/mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling. Specifically, CS is caused by activating mutations in HRAS. Although receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) signaling, which is upstream of Ras/MAPK, is known to play a critical role in craniofacial and dental development, the craniofacial and dental… Show more

“…Individuals with CS have oral habits including a secondary tongue thrust, open mouth posture, and excessive teeth grinding/bruxism, resulting in an anterior open bite with a posterior crossbite (Goodwin et al, ). Individuals have a significantly increased incidence of Class III malocclusion (37%) whereby the maxillary first molar is positioned posteriorly to the mandibular first molar (Goodwin, Oberoi, et al, ). The majority have a narrow, high‐arched palate with thickening of the posterior maxillary and the anterior mandibular alveolar ridge.…”

“…Microdontia has rarely been reported (Takahashi & Ohashi, ). Nearly all individuals with CS have an enamel defect characterized by demineralized white focal and striation lesions allowing pathologic wear due to increased susceptibility to abrasion and caries (Goodwin et al, ; Goodwin, Oberoi, et al, ).…”

“…CS individuals have a distinct “coarse” facial appearance that includes relative macrocephaly with high forehead, bitemporal narrowing, hyperteloric appearance, downslanting palpebral fissures, epicanthal folds, short nose with depressed bridge and wide nasal tip, full cheeks, large mouth, thick lips and low‐set posteriorly rotated ears (Figure C,D). Intraoral findings include high‐arched palate and malocclusion with increased incidence of class III malocclusion, posterior crossbite and open bite (Figure C,D).…”
