  • When Harper was diagnosed with Beckwith Wiedemann Syndrome shortly after birth, her family knew they wanted the best team possible for her tongue reduction surgery.
    Harper now leads a limitless life thanks to Dr. Chad Perlyn, an expert in treating macroglossia, and the pediatric plastic surgery program at Nicklaus Children’s Hospital.

    I was diagnosed with BWS at birth, I’ve had almost 30 procedures since then. I am now 15 going strong ☺️

      I did have that exact situation of being born in a local hospital that had no idea about my condition, so I had to be Transferred to GOSH to have my procedures 👍

      I don't know if you still need a message but I'm seventeen and was born with the syndrome. I had macroglossia and omphalocele too but grew up not knowing about it because my parents never told me. Anyway, I dont know if this will help you but I'm completely fine now with no indication that I ever had the syndrome apart from the scar from the operation on my stomach. I hope your baby is okay and please have hope that they will get better.

      @@عبداللهالصفار-ظ9ص hi, yes of course! I had to get scans of my stomach until I was age 9, every 3 months and then every 6 months as well as body measurements to check for cancer, thankfully they all came back clear. The enlarged tongue bothered me a bit, I was offered surgery for it but my parents didn't take it. my tongue is still larger than average and it affects my speech slightly but not really noticeably. I was also always one of the taller children in my year at school, which was pointed out a lot, but I've since grown to a regular 5'7". Finally, I was teased in school for my scars on my belly button from the omphalecele surgery. Apart from that, I was pretty much fine growing up. When I was born, the doctors told my parents that if you're going to be born with a syndrome, this is the better one to have, because in most cases effects are limited and wear off by adulthood. Good luck!

    Sir
    I am from India.
    My daughter is born with macroglossia. She is one month old. Doctor said that she will take one year time and her tongue will automatically adjust. Please help me whether should I believe the doctor saying or should I consult other doctors. Please reply if anyone's baby faced the same problem.

      my brother has macroglossia and as he has grown (he’s 3 ) the size has grown with him he has adapted to his enlarge tongue he’s able to say a couple words and tucks his tongue in his mouth but it does still cause problems like sleep apnea and difficulty eating. The doctor had suggested a tongue reduction for my brother but he can’t get the procedure done till he’s 4.
