Treacher Collins Syndrome - A Personal View Whilst searching on the internet for information about treacher collins syndromeI found very little nontechnical / clinical information, and even less http://freespace.virgin.net/tcs.london/
Extractions: Updated: 18th August 2002 W hilst searching on the internet for information about Treacher Collins Syndrome I found very little non-technical / clinical information, and even less information from a personal point of view. Most sites I did find were of support groups and most were in the US. W hen I was born with TCS I expect my parents would have appreciated a little more information and advice. I don't think they got much support at all. In fact I think they were faced with many blank looks from people who weren't quite sure what to make of me! A s I have now started my own homepage I thought I would try to compile some information and gather some links that might be of use to people with TCS or their families. I hope it may also be used as a meeting point for those people (Until very recently I had never spoken to anyone with TCS), and also help those who are lucky enough to live without it understand a little more about it. It is amazing how most people are afraid to ask! I would appreciate it if you would sign the guestbook, which can be found in the utilities page, especially if you have TCS or have a family member with it. Please give me feedback on where you are from, how (if at all) you are connected with TCS, how useful you found the site and any suggestions for improvements. Also if you have any further information or links which could be added, please let me know. If you have a TCS related site of your own, please join the

Extractions: Treacher Collins Syndrome Treacher Collins syndrome is a highly complex disease process. It is characterized by hypoplasia of the facial bones, especially the zygoma (cheekbone) and the mandible. Facial clefting causes this hypoplastic appearance, with possible deformities or deficiencies of the ear, orbital, midface, and lower jaw regions. The clinical appearance is a result of the cheekbone failing to fuse with the maxilla, frontal and temporal bones. An extensive array of complications can affect treatment. Because of the small jaw and airway, combined with the normal size of the tongue, breathing problems can occur at birth and during sleep for a child with Treacher Collins syndrome. Learning and speech difficulties can also occur depending on the degree of conductive hearing loss common in the syndrome. As with other disfiguring conditions, assessing and treating the psychological needs of the Treacher Collins patient is a vital function of the true craniofacial center. Source:

Extractions: Mission : To build a community of people with Treacher Collins syndrome and their families in an environment that transforms people through face to face sharing of stories, surgeries, pictures, heartaches, and love. Tre acher Collins: Treacher Collins syndrome is a genetic craniofacial syndrome that is characterized by a range of distinctive facial anomalies. The main characteristics of TCS are downward slanting eyes, small lower jaw, and malformed or missing ears. These anomalies cause hearing, breathing, and eating problems. Individuals and families also struggle with the psychological aspects of having a facial difference. About 1 in every 10,000 babies is born with TCS. For more information about Treacher Collins syndrome and to view personal experiences of people with TCS, please visit www.treachercollins.org Vision : Each event is essential in many ways; not only is it important for people with TCS to meet others like them, it is equally important to network about medical doctors, procedures, and hospitals. The TCC will organize at least one yearly event to bring together those with TCS and their families. History Five volunteers founded the TCC in 2001 as a result of successfully organizing the first TCS retreat. Over 65 people attended the first retreat and as a result, we will now have an annual TCS retreat. Over 100 people attended our 2002 TCS retreat on June 28-30 in Columbia, MD.
