title: A long surviving case of holoprosencephaly agnathia series.
abstract: The rare syndrome of the agnathia with microstomia, aglossia, synotia (the external ears approaching one another in the midline) and brain malformation (agnathia-holoprosencephaly) was reported by Pauli et al. (1983) as a developmental field defect. This syndrome has two subgroups. One is more severe with brain malformation (holoprosencephaly), and the other is less severe without brain malformation. This report presents a long surviving case of this syndrome without brain malformation.
