ABSTRACT
Goldenhar Syndrome is the second most frequent craniofacial malformation; it can occur sporadically or as an autosomal dominant inheritance which involves derivatives of the first and second branchial arches. Its primary characteristics are the ocular, auricular (outer and inner ear) and vertebral manifestations, hence its pseudonym oculo-auricular-vertebral spectrum (OAVS). We present the case of a newborn product of a 38 year old mother with no family history with clinical signs of this syndrome
