Haberland syndrome with bilateral ocular involvement

Abstract

Haberland syndrome or encephalocutaneous lipomatosis is a very uncommon syndrome that is characterised by changes in the skin, eye, and central nervous system. It was first described in 1970 by Haberland and Perou, with about 60 cases having been reported since then. A case is reported of a 14-week-old male diagnosed with Haberland syndrome with bilateral ocular involvement in the form of palpebral coloboma and choristomas.
