Airway anomalies in the oculoauriculofrontonasal syndrome
Abstract
Oculoauriculofrontonasal syndrome was the subset of patients with oculo-auriculo-vertebral spectrum and frontonasal malformation. Radiographic evidence of tracheal duplication was documented in a male infant with oculoauriculofrontonasal syndrome. Although previously unreported in oculoauriculofrontonasal syndrome, airway anomalies in our case can be attributed to the oculo-auriculo-vertebral component of the oculoauriculofrontonasal syndrome.
