Oro-facial-digital syndrome, specifically Mohr syndrome, is an uncommon genetic disorder characterized by predominant oro-facial anomalies and polysyndactyly. While typically associated with autosomal recessive and X-linked dominant inheritance patterns, this case presents an autosomal dominant mode of transmission. This report documents the clinical presentation of three individuals, a 12-year-old male child and two females, 10-year-old and eight-year-old, who have inherited the disorder from their ancestors. The observed features include post-axial polysyndactyly in both upper and lower limbs, with the male child exhibiting additional manifestations of strabismus and knee joint defects. Symptomatic management is pursued due to the absence of complications, with surgical interventions and subsequent cosmetic repairs planned for all three children. Post-surgical physiotherapy is scheduled as part of their comprehensive treatment plan. The prognosis for this disorder is generally favorable, with a complete recovery anticipated and no complications expected.

BACKGROUND: Oro-facial digital(OFD) syndrome is a rare anomaly which is often missed out as just cleft lip and palate.It is an X-linked dominant condition with lethality in males. It however results from the pleotropic effect of a morphogenetic impairment affecting almost invariably the mouth, face and digits and it also includes lower IQ and mental retardation. 14 different variations of these syndrome can be seen with the majority of cases of type 1 and 2 based on characteristic clinical manifestations.
METHODS: Present case report describes a 9 year old girl patient who was mis-diagnosed with partial cleft palate and was later diagnosed as orofacial digital syndrome based on the clinical and oral features.
CONCLUSIONS: Not much literature is present regarding this topic and with no relevent family history makes this case a one in a million case of OFD. Therefore, this case report is a complete insight on Oro-facial digital syndrome.
