Abstract
|
|
|
We have experienced a case of congenital deformity of the eye, which was unilateral, combined with cleft lip and palate.
Oblique facial cleft is the most uncomnon facial cleft. The cleft follows an oblique line extending ´from the upper lip, lateral to the philtrum and nostril, toward the eye. The coloboma of the lower lid and enlarged bifid of the cornea were formed by part df a deep groove along the lateral aspect of the nose, together with the presence of the cleft lip and palate.
In the present case, the malformation may have resulted from abnormalities in the germ cells themselves or from amniotic abnormal pressure, or from the formation of amniotic. bands or adhesions.
