Abstract

We report the case of mandibulofacial dysostosis in a 9-year-old Indian boy presenting with unilateral double limbal dermoid in superotemporal and superonasal quadrants, high arched palate, and paramedian cleft in the right side of the nose with abnormal dentition. A multidisciplinary approach to treatment was advised. The dermoid cysts were excised surgically with a reconstruction of the ocular surface using multilayered amniotic membrane transplantation.
