Expanding the phenotype of oculoectodermal syndrome: Possible relationship to encephalocraniocutaneous lipomatosis

Abstract

Oculoectodermal syndrome (OES) is characterized by epibulbar dermoids, aplasia cutis congenita, and other abnormalities. Here, we report 2 new cases, review 13 previous cases, and propose that OES may be a mild variant of encephalocraniocutaneous lipomatosis (ECCL), differing primarily in its lack of intracranial pathology.
