Parry Romberg syndrome (PRS) is a rare self-limiting disease, typically occurring in children and young adults, that causes slow progressive atrophy of one-half of the face. It primarily affects the subcutaneous tissue and skin with some cases exhibiting deeper extension to glandular, osseous and muscular structures. Neurologic and ocular involvement is variable.

Parry-Romberg syndrome (PRS), also recognized as progressive hemifacial atrophy (PHA), is a rare medical condition affecting the dermis, subcutaneous tissue, and occasionally underlying anatomical structures such as muscles and bones. While the etiology of this condition remains incompletely elucidated, it has been hypothesized that trauma, autoimmunity, infection, and autonomic dysregulation may constitute potential contributory factors. Typically, the onset of symptoms occurs within the initial two decades of life, though instances of late-onset PRS manifesting in the sixth and seventh decades of life have also been documented.
