A case of isotretinoin embryopathy with bilateral anotia and Taussig-Bing malformation.
We report a newborn infant with multiple congenital anomalies (anotia and Taussig-Bing malformation) due to exposure to isotretinoin within the first trimester. In this paper we aim to draw to the fact that caution is needed when prescribing vitamin A-containing drugs to women of childbearing years.
