Trisomy 22 and facioauriculovertebral (Goldenhar) sequence
Abstract
We report on an infant girl born with complete trisomy 22 and left hemifacial microsomia, ear anomaly, and limbal and epibulbar complex choristoma. Trisomy 22 was confirmed by prometaphase chromosome analysis and in situ hybridization. This patient extends the list of chromosome abnormalities associated with apparent Golenhar sequence and emphasizes the importance of chromosome analysis in the investigation of patients with this condition. A detailed ophthalmopathological investigation is reported.
