The present clinical picture is one characterised by marked mental retardation, microcephaly, craniofacial dysmorphia and physical malformations. |
During my first shift, I witnessed a halting conversation between a counsellor and a young girl with body dysmorphia. |
Muscle dysmorphia has been described as a disorder in which individuals are pathologically preoccupied with their muscularity. |
Recovery from muscle dysmorphia is very difficult because, as with anorexia nervosa, the individual is usually unwilling to admit their problem. |
In case of severe dysmorphia, it is sometimes necessary to use both surgery and orthodontics. |
To date, only 2 siblings have been described with perinatal asphyxia and dysmorphia, including low-set dysplastic ears, micrognathia, a short neck, and loose, wrinkled skin. |
