RESUMO

ABSTRACT: Children with craniofacial microsomia (CFM) are at increased risk for educational and social concerns. This study describes intervention services and frequency of teasing in a multinational population of children with CFM. Caregivers of children with CFM ages 3 to 18 years in the US and South America were administered a questionnaire. Additional information was gathered from medical charts and photographs. Participants (N = 169) had an average age of 10.1 ±â€Š6.2 years, were primarily male (60%), and from the US (46%) or Colombia (32%). Most participants had microtia and mandibular hypoplasia (70%). They often had unilateral (71%) or bilateral (19%) hearing loss and 53% used a hearing aid. In the US, special education services were provided for 48% of participants enrolled in school; however, similar services were rare (4%) in South America and reflect differences in education systems. Access to any intervention service was higher in the US (80%) than in South America (48%). Caregivers reported children showed diagnosis awareness by an average age of 4.4 ±â€Š1.9 years. Current or past teasing was reported in 41% of the children, starting at a mean age of 6.0 ±â€Š2.4 years, and most often took place at school (86%). As half of the US participants received developmental and academic interventions, providers should screen for needs and facilitate access to services. Given diagnosis awareness at age 4 and teasing at age 6, providers are encouraged to assess for psychosocial concerns and link to resources early in treatment.
