ABSTRACT

A baby girl who underwent cesarean section delivery and had a complicated postnatal course requiring neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) is followed in the pediatrics clinic for several months. At five months old, the baby girl was referred to an ophthalmology clinic with brain stem and cerebellum malformation consistent with the molar tooth sign (MTS) on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain, hypotonia, and developmental delay. She has the classic features of Joubert Syndrome (JS). Other findings not typically associated with the clinical picture of the syndrome were observed in this patient, specifically skin capillary hemangioma of the forehead. Cutaneous capillary hemangioma was an incidental finding in this JS patient and responded favorably to medical treatment with propranolol where a significant reduction in the size of the mass was observed. This incidental finding can be seen as a potential addition to the spectrum of associated findings in JS.
