  • Title: Managing the child with a diagnosis of Moebius syndrome: more than meets the eye.
    Author: McKay VH, Touil LL, Jenkins D, Fattah AY.
    Journal: Arch Dis Child; 2016 Sep; 101(9):843-6. PubMed ID: 26868039.
    Abstract:
    Moebius syndrome (MBS) is a congenital, non-progressive facial and abducens nerve palsy in the presence of full vertical gaze and may be associated with limb abnormalities and craniofacial dysmorphisms. MBS is now defined as a disorder of rhombencephalic maldevelopment and recent gene discoveries have shown this to be a dominant disorder in a subset of patients. Accurate diagnosis and management by a multidisciplinary team with expertise in congenital facial palsy is paramount.
