PHACE(S) Syndrome with Ocular Involvements and No Periocular Hemangioma.

ABSTRACT: PHACE(S) syndrome is a neurocutaneous disorder with a hallmark finding of an infantile facial hemangioma (IFH) >5 cm. Eye examination of patients with PHACE(S) syndrome with no IFH at periorbital region is reported to be of low yield. We report a unique case of the syndrome with ocular manifestations without periorbital IFH or systemic findings. A 3-week-old female infant with right periauricular IFH >5 cm, extending to the neck and cheek and lower lip IFH was presented. Examination revealed pseudoptosis due to microphthalmia with esotropia and hypertropia. Both corneas were clear with diameters of 5 mm and 10 mm, right eye (RE) and left eye (LE), respectively. There was a posterior polar cataract with a poor view of the fundus RE. Ocular B-scan and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) finding
