Oculo-auricular-fronto-nasal syndrome a new entity
Journal Title: Journal of the Indian Medical Association - Year 2019, Vol 117, Issue 2
Abstract
We describe a unique combination of fronto nasal malformations and oculo auricular vertebral syndrome without any vertebral defects and with bilateral involvement of eyes. The oculo auricular vertebral syndrome manifests with defects of the first and second branchial arches including hemifacial microsomias and Goldenhar’s syndrome. We describe the clinical features in a 6-year-old male child with lid colobomas, ocular dermoids and dermolipomas, hearing defects, zygomatic hypoplasia but with bilateral involvement and absence of heart disease, absence of encephalocoele and without any maxillary or mandibular hypoplasia. We name this unique entity as Oculo-auricular-fronto-nasal syndrome.
