[Goldenhar syndrome. Oculoauriculovertebral dysplasia. 2 new pediatric cases].
The authors report two new cases of Goldenhar's syndrome, as they are described in Gorlin's scheme of oculo-auriculo-vertebral dysplasia. Therapeutical problems (plastic and orthopedic surgery, ocular prothesis and hearing aid) due to Goldenhar's syndrome are very acutely pointed out in these cases. Generalized convulsions, not yet described in the medical literature, are found in these two cases. These congenital malformations are caused by branchial arches organogenesis anomalies. The authors consider that accurate and early dermatologic diagnosis is important for the correct management of children with oculo-auriculo-dysplasia.
