  • Title: Posterior fossa dermoid cyst in a patient with Goldenhar syndrome.
    Author: Dange N, Bonde V, Goel A, Muzumdar D.
    Journal: Pediatr Neurosurg; 2007; 43(6):522-5. PubMed ID: 17992045.
    Abstract:
    A 7-year-old boy with Goldenhar syndrome was diagnosed to have a posterior cranial fossa dermoid cyst. The presence of such a combination of clinical entities has not been reported earlier. The embryonic dysgenesis causing midline posterior fossa dermoid and other anomalies observed in Goldenhar syndrome occur between the third and fifth week of intrauterine life and are probably interrelated. This report emphasizes the need for a high index of suspicion and the value of cranial imaging in a case with Goldenhar syndrome.
