We've just acquired dd's notes from her paediatrician as we will need her medical history to register with a UK doctor. Among the correspondence from an opthamologist we consulted aged 2 months for a dermoid on her eye is mention of Goldenhar Syndrome. Having Googled there are lots of potentially associated symptoms, few if any she has, but some of which may be traced through my family. I also wonder if this explains why she was referred so quickly aged 4 months for a kidney and bladder tests following a UTI as problems there can also be associated. All tests were clear.
I don't know whether our then paediatrician subsequently eliminated it (he has moved on) as noone has raised it since, or if it is something that should be followed up - be it now 3 1/2 years later ! She is happy, healthy (apart from current chickenpox!) and bright.
Anyone else had this as a suggested diagnosis ?
