A transverse facial cleft accompanied by a accessory ear and hypoplasia of the upper extremity--a case report.
Malformations of the extremities frequently accompany cleft lip and palate. An association of malformation of the extremities with transverse facial cleft, however, has never been reported. We have recently discovered a 5-month-old Japanese female with a transverse facial cleft accompanied by an accessory ear and hypoplasia of the upper extremity. The case is reported and a discussion is included.
