Síndrome de Moebius: reporte de un caso

The diagnosis and treatment of congenital malformations continues to be a universal problem. This work is a study of a case of a six-month-old infant patient treated at the Cancer Hospital Dr. Julio Villacreses Colmont Manabi (SOLCA) from May 2015, with clinical symptoms of increased cephalic girth, drooling and occasional vomiting, irritability and delayed psychomotor development, expressionless face, without specific treatment. We conducted clinical assessment, with abdominopelvic ultrasound and brain MRI, and found multiple congenital malformations, including Moebius syndrome-a rare disease. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate the high frequency of this disease. In Ecuador, there are no statistics of this syndrome, or else, the disease is underreported.
