Goldenhar Syndrome in an Infant of Diabetic Mother

Abstract

Goldenhar syndrome or oculoauriculovertebral dysplasia is a non-accidental association of hemifacial microsomia, auricular anomalies, epibulbar dermoid and vertebral malformations. Etiology of this syndrome is unknown. Although some malformations are more frequent in infants of diabetic mothers, developmental defects of first and second bronchial arch are not frequent findings in these patients. Here, we report an infant of diabetic mother with manifestations of Goldenhar syndrome.
