Goldenbar syndrome is a rare congenital anomaly characterized by face, eye, ear and vertebrae involvement. It was first described by Goldenhar as ”Goldenhar syndrome” in 1952 and was renamed as ”Oculoauriculovertebral dysplasia” by Gorlin in 1963. In our report, four cases of Goldenhar syndrome are presented and clinical features analysed retrospectively from 1968 to 1987 in Taipei Veterans General Hospital. Two patients are female and two male. The more frequent clinical presenting anomalities in these patients are (1) eye: epibulbar dermoid (3/4, 75%) with bilateral involvement predominant (2/3, 65%). (2) ear: preauricular skin tags (4/4, 100%). (3) mandible: unilateral hypoplasia or absence of mandible with asymmetric facial deformity (4/4, 100%). (4) vertebrae: spina bifida (3/4, 75%) and rudimentary C7 (&/or cervical rib, C7) (3/4, 75%). One case with cardiovascular anomalities showed left side superior vena cava, mitral valve prolapse and left lung hypoplasia. No hereditary model nor chromosome anomalities noted in our four patients.
