ABSTRACT
El «anquilobléfaron filiforme adnatum» es una anomalía congénita caracterizada por la adhesión parcial de los párpados superiores e inferiores. Los márgenes del párpado permanecen fusionados hasta el final del quinto mes de edad gestacional. La separación suele completarse alrededor del séptimo mes fetal. El anquilobléfaron puede ser una manifestación aislada o puede estar asociado con anomalías en otros órganos y/o sistemas. Presentamos un varón recién nacido con antecedentes familiares de displasia ectodérmica hipohidrótica (madre y abuelo materno). Se revelaron bandas extensibles de piel en el ojo derecho y en el izquierdo. Aparte de esto, presentó labio leporino, ausencia total de paladar, displasia de uñas y ungueal y pezones supernumerarios
"Ankyloblepharon filiforme adnatum" is a congenital anomaly characterized by partial or complete adhesion of upper and lower eyelids. The lid margins remain fused until the end of the fifth month of gestational age. Complete separation usually is completed about the seventh fetal month. Ankyloblepharon may be an isolated manifestation or may be associated with abnormalities in other organs and / or systems. The case is presented on a newborn male with family history of hypohydrotic ectodermal dysplasia (mother and maternal grandfather). It revealed extensible bands of skin in right and in left eye. Apart from this, he presented cleft lip, complete absence of palate, nail and ungueal dysplasia and supernumerary nipples

Mucormycosis is a fungal infection that often is fatal. It usually affects diabetic or immunocompromised patients. The site of onset generally is the nasal mucosa and the disease extends rapidly to the palate, orbit and brain. Early diagnosis is important and is based on the clinical features (diabetes, black eschar in nose, palate or face) and demonstration of the characteristic hyphae in the biopsy of the nasal mucosa or oral lesions. Treatment is based on systemic antifungal therapy, radical surgery, and medical management of the underlying disease. A case of rhino-orbital-cerebral mucormycosis is presented and the world literature is reviewed.
