The Center for
Craniofacial Anomalies, located at the University of California,
San Francisco, has been caring for individuals born with craniofacial
differences since 1954. The Center is dedicated to the early diagnosis
and treatment of craniofacial conditions, combining the most advanced
surgical and therapeutic techniques with respectful and sensitive
team care.
A craniofacial
condition can occur from a birth defect, trauma or tumor. The Center
at UCSF is experienced in treating children and adults with all
types of congenital and acquired conditions affecting the face,
head and neck. The following conditions are seen most frequently
in the Center and therefore are discussed in greater detail in this
website:
Since most conditions
affect an individual medically and socially on many different levels,
the Center at UCSF uses a multidisciplinary team approach to address
the special needs of our patients. We are proud to serve the diverse
population of Northern and Central California and welcome referrals
from throughout the United States and abroad.
