Oculofaciocardiodental syndrome: a rare case and review of the literature.

Oculofaciocardiodental syndrome is a rare genetic disorder affecting ocular, facial, dental, and cardiac systems. The clinical diagnosis of oculofaciocardiodental syndrome can be challenging due to a wide variety of symptoms. Oculofaciocardiodental syndrome is found only in females due to its X-linked inheritance pattern and embryonic lethality for males. Radiculomegaly of canines is the most consistent finding in these patients. In this report we present a female patient with characteristic facial features, as well as a comprehensive overview of oculofaciocardiodental syndrome. Diagnosis of oculofaciocardiodental syndrome in this patient was verified by genetic analysis, during which we found a novel mutation in BCOR.
