A case of oculo-auricolo-vertebral syndrome is presented.

A child, aged 8 months, was found to have epibulbar dermoid and subconjonctival lipodermoid in the right eye associated with preauricular appendices and a peculiar appendice located at the point of the nose.

Radiographic examination showed cuneiform anomalies of the cervical vertebrae, schisis of the dorsal vertebrae, and a marked calcification of the cerebral faulx. The child's mother presented similar vertebral anomalies and a supranumerary rib.
