Abstract
Wildervanck syndrome, also called as cervico-oculo-acoustic syndrome. This is characterized by the triad of Klippel-Feil syndrome, Duane retraction syndrome, and congenital deafness. Other associations described are cardiovascular and musculoskeletal abnormalities. Some reports, in fact, state that nearly one percent of hearing-impaired females may be affected by Wildervanck syndrome. In our case report, a child who had the complete triad of the syndrome along with arachnodactyly (long slender digits), camptodactyly, short stature, and facial nerve paresis has been described.
