ABSTRACT
Goldenhar's syndrome is a kind of congenital anomaly with epibulbar dermoid, preauricular skin tag, blind-ended fistula and vertebral anomaly. The primary cause is unknown but thought to be a structural developmental abnormalities of the 1st, and 2nd branchial arch. In this syndrome, we can observe characteristic anomalies of the face, ear, vertebrae, heart, and the nervous system. Treatment is surgical correction, removal of epibulbar dermoid, prevention of hearing loss through early hearing test. The consultations of ophthalmologist, otorhinolaryngologist, orthopedist and dentist are necessary for this syndrome. We report a case of Goldenhar's syndrome with hemifacial hypoplasia, preauricular skin tags, blind-ended fistulas, hemivertebrae and vesicoureteral reflux.
