Moebius syndrome: Report of two cases

Abstract

<p>Moebius syndrome consists of congenital seventh nerve palsy associated with other cranial nerve palsies, most often of the sixth, and/or muscoluskeletal anomalies. The pathogenesis of the syndrome remains unclear, but prenatal brainstem ischaemia is one of the major hypotheses. In this paper, we report two cases with Moebius syndrome and discuss the etiology and differential diagnosis of the disease.</p>
