Abstract:
A male neonate presented with Goldenhar's syndrome (oculoauriculovertebral dysplasia), a combination of facial microsomia and auricular malformation, associated with occipital meningoencephalocele. Three-dimensional computed tomography images clearly showed a suboccipital cranial cleft extending to the foramen magnum and hypogenesis of the left temporal bone. The patient died of heart failure due to ventricular septal defect at age 5 months.
