Title: [Syndrome of the 1st and 2nd branchial arches. Report of 3 cases]. Author: Gil Barbosa M, Apango Sandoval R. Journal: Bol Med Hosp Infant Mex; 1976; 33(6):1263-70. PubMed ID: 1008928.

We discuss the pathogenesis and the differences with other diseases including those of hereditary origin. The initial management is discussed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
