ABSTRACT
Goldenhar syndrome, a variant of hemifacial microsomia, is a rare congenital condition characterized by mandibular hypoplasia, epibulbar dermoids, preauricular tags, and vertebral anomalies. This article discusses the case of a young boy presenting with classical signs of Goldenhar syndrome along with bilateral mandibular second premolar (BMSP) agenesis. While this syndrome can lead to significant physical and functional difficulties, timely recognition and tailored management are pivotal in enhancing the patient’s quality of life and long-term health outcomes.
