Cleidocranial dysplasia: a case report illustrating diagnostic clinical and radiological findings.

Cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD) is a rare congenital defect, primarily affecting bones, undergoing intramembranous ossification. CCD presents with skeletal defects of several bones, the most striking feature of which are partial or complete absence of clavicles, late fontanels closure, and presence of open skull sutures and multiple wormian bones. These patients may be first noticed by the dentist because of the aesthetic problems or delayed eruption of teeth experienced by the patient. Here, we report a typical case of CCD in a 15-year-old female who had classical diagnostic feature of this syndrome.
