Abstract

Goldenhar syndrome is a malformation complex involving the structures arising from first and second branchial arches, the first pharyngeal pouch, first branchial cleft and primordia of the temporal bone. Though the syndrome itself is not very rare, the presence of polydactyly and hydrocephalus, which are rare associations, prompted us to report this case.
