Goldenhar syndrome is a pattern of malformation with wide variability of expression characterized
by epibulbar dermoids, preauricular appendages and pretragal blind-ended fistulas, and vertebral
anomalies.
We have experienced two cases of Goldenhar syndrome.
In one case multiple hemivertebrae, anomalous ribs, hydrocephalus with abscence of the septum
pellucidum and mild widening of the subarachnoid space were noted.
Diagnosis was made by physical examination and radiological findings.
