AB - Duane syndrome is a rare retraction anomaly characterized by congenital non-progressive horizontal
ophthalmoplegia and other systemic signs. No data has been yet registered about oral manifestation of
Duane syndrome. In this article we present a six years old male patient was diagnosed as having Duane
retraction syndrome. He presented skeletal Class III with both maxillary and mandibular protrusion,
counter clock-wise mandibular rotation, lingualized maxillary and mandibular incisors, first mandibular
molar agenesis, asymmetric morphology of the mandibular condyles and multiple decay lesions. Posteroanterior x-ray showed an asymmetrical craniofacial structure. The aim of this case report was to describe
the oral signs of a patient affected by DRS.
