Abstract
Hypoglossia concomitant with hemimandibular hypoplasia is a rarely reported entity. The congenital anomaly of hypoglossia is uncommon and fewer than 50 cases have been reported in literature so far whereas unilateral mandibular hypoplasia is found to occur in one in 3500 live births. This article focuses on the nonsyndromic category wherein we report a case of unilateral mandibular hypoplasia and rudimentary tongue in a 6-month-old boy baby with presence of mild asymmetry towards the right side of the mandible. The objective of this presentation is to highlight the rarity, possible etiology, manifestations and diagnostic approach of the nonsyndromic group.
