Abstract
True hemihypertrophy involves not only the soft tissues of the body but the hard tissues as well. It may be classified as being total or partial. Total, if an entire side of the body is involved and partial, if only a portion. This report presents 2 cases of true hemifacial hypertrophy in an adult aged 29 years and a child of 12 years. Three-stage reconstruction is described in the older patient.Entities:
