Abstract
To our knowledge, this is the first published study of TCS midfacial fat compartments. Their hypoplasia is an important part of the syndrome's facial deformity. The knowledge of their anatomy, organization and volumetric variation is essential. Their re-establishment is key in the early treatment phases of this syndrome. Using the preoperative data, the morphometric database of reference, and surgical simulation, an appropriate surgical technique, going from an autologous fat graft to a free flap, can then be chose.
