title: Goldenhar's syndrome: case report.
abstract: A case of Goldenhar's Syndrome (oculoauriculovertebral dysplasia) in a 3-day-old Nigerian neonate with right anophthalmos and lipodermoid, left limbal dermoid, bilateral preauricular appendages and mandibular hypoplasia is presented. The lipodermoid was attached to the tarsal conjunctiva of the lower lid of the anophthalmic side. The causative factor was presumably maternal drug (traditional medicine) ingestion at three months gestation. No similar case has been reported previously. The literature on Goldenhar's Syndrome is briefly reviewed.
