Treacher Collins syndrome, also known as mandibulofacial dysostosis, is a rare congenital disorder affecting craniofacial development. It is caused by an autosomal dominant mutation, primarily in the TCOF1 gene, which impacts the development of the first and second branchial arches. We present the case of a 12-year-old male with bilateral conductive hearing loss and deformed ears, whose clinical and imaging findings were consistent with Treacher Collins syndrome.

Treacher Collins syndrome (TCS) is a rare congenital craniofacial disorder with variable penetrance and high genetic and phenotypic heterogeneity. It is caused by pathogenic variants in the , , and genes, and its major characteristic features are malar and mandibular hypoplasia, downward slanting of the palpebral fissures, and conductive hearing loss. In this study, five patients (two males and three females, age range from 2 to 29 years) with TCS were tested by Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS)-based sequencing and clinically characterized.
