OBJECTIVE: This article adds more information to the literature by reporting a case of a neonate with a rare association of bilateral synechia between the jaws, fusion of buccal mucosa to the ridges and between the tongue and palate, and ankyloblepharon filiforme adnatum in both eyes, without any other facial or systemic malformation.
METHODS: A literature review of similar cases published in PUBMED/MEDLINE was conducted followed by a discussion and comparison to the new case.
CONCLUSIONS: The rare association of these congenital defects, without the presence of syndromic symptoms, could be diagnosed and treated easily with good prognostic evolution.
