    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Genetics
    • Pediatrics

    Background:

    • Moebius syndrome is a rare congenital neurological disorder.
    • It is characterized by cranial nerve deficits, primarily affecting the facial (CN VII) and abducens (CN VI) nerves.
    • Associated anomalies can include limb malformations and developmental delays.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a case report of Moebius syndrome.
    • To highlight the clinical features and diagnostic considerations.
    • To contribute to the understanding of this rare condition.

    Main Methods:

    • Case presentation of a patient diagnosed with Moebius syndrome.
    • Clinical examination and assessment of neurological deficits.
    • Review of relevant literature.

    Main Results:

    • The patient exhibited bilateral facial nerve paralysis and abducens nerve palsy.
    • Congenital anomalies included mandibular hypoplasia, pectoral muscle hypoplasia, adactylia, and bilateral club feet.
    • The findings align with the typical presentation of Moebius syndrome.

    Conclusions:

    • Moebius syndrome presents with a spectrum of neurological and physical abnormalities.
    • Early diagnosis and multidisciplinary management are crucial for affected individuals.
    • This case underscores the importance of recognizing the diverse manifestations of Moebius syndrome.
