Abstract

Asymmetric crying face refers to a neonate or an infant with face appearing symmetric at rest and asymmetric during crying. We report three neonates with asymmetrical crying facies (ACF) associated with other anomalies. There was one infant with ear anomaly and simian crease, other with transverse limb defect and the third with ear anomaly and congenital heart disease. We add a note on approach to diagnosis, evaluation and management.

Keywords
