Cyclopia, A Rare Congenital Malformation: A Case Report in a Resource-Limited Setting in Sub-Saharan Africa
Cyclopia is a rare and severe form of holoprosencephaly, a condition in which the forebrain fails to divide into two hemispheres during embryonic development. It is poorly reported in sub-Saharan Africa. We report the case of a 21-years-old G2P1001 lady who was referred to our service for better management of preterm labor. She was 29 weeks pregnant, and her cervix was 4 cm dilated on arrival. Labor progressed to vaginal delivery of a preterm malformed baby girl. Physical examination of the neonate revealed.
