Zusammenfassung:Oculoauriculovertebral dysplasia is a syndrome consisting of (1) epibulbar dermoids and/or lipodermoids, (2) auricular appendices and pretragal blind-ended fistulas, and (3) vertebral anomalies.

This syndrome has been considered to be a variant of mandibulofacial dysostosis by several authors but reasons are presented to suggest that this concept is not valid. The association of the syndrome with vascular anomalies merits further study.
