Abstract

Cyclopia also called "cyclopia" is a rare genetic malformation. It is the most severe form of alobaric holoprosencephaly. It is a rare form of hypotelorism characterized by the fusion of the two orbits and the presence of a single eye in the middle of the forehead hence its name. This malformation is associated with other facial malformations. Cyclopia is related to the absence of development of the frontal bud returning within the scope of ectroprosopia. ormation, face. We report a case of cyclopia in a newborn female born from a pregnancy estimated at term.
