The association between Goldenhar syndrome and homolateral internal carotid artery agenesis to our knowledge, has never emerged before. We present a case report in a female child that was examined with tonal audiometry, A.B.R., CT scan, MR, digital-subtraction-angiography and color Doppler. The aim of this report is to present an uncommon pathologic association which also provides a brief review of the embryology of the ear and carotid vessels whilst discussing probable pathogenetic causes.

Abstract
The association between Goldenhar syndrome and homolateral internal carotid artery agenesis to our knowledge, has never emerged before. We present a case report in a female child that was examined with tonal audiometry, A.B.R., CT scan, MR, digital-subtraction-angiography and color Doppler. The aim of this report is to present an uncommon pathologic association which also provides a brief review of the embryology of the ear and carotid vessels whilst discussing probable pathogenetic causes.File in questo prodotto:
