Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Branchial cleft anomalies are congenital remnants of the embryologic branchial clefts persisting past the embryo stage. Most occur singly and sporadically, though syndromic associations are described. Multiple branchial cleft anomalies coincident in the same patient are exceptionally rare, and rarer still are peripheral dermal sinus tracts on the extremities, with one prior documented case. We report the first case of multiple branchial cleft anomalies with a peripheral dermal sinus of the ipsilateral lower extremity. Numerous concurrent congenital anomalies exist in the patient, representing the first description of the Guarisco-Winters syndrome. The patient is intellectually and developmentally age-appropriate in all other regards. |
