title: [Unilateral double malformation of the eye and double malformation of the brain in a cat].
abstract: An unusual and grotesque congenital deformity of the head involving a duplication of the CNS and the anlage of a third eye in dextroposition (double monster) in a 54 day old kitten, born by caesarean section, is described. The malformation is thought to be caused by exogenous teratogenic influences during the early phase of blastogenesis.
