Conclusion: With emergence of new reports, the mutational and expressive variations of this disease is becoming more enigmatic. Our tidings shed light on a novel clinical association with coal black skin pigmentation in whom trismus was dealt successfully through operative methods. Further mutational analysis and clinical probing would help in concreting a definite categorization of this diseases that lie between these gamuts. | |
