Abstract

An unusual case of alobar holoprosencephaly is reported with hypognathic cyclopia and two proboscides, one supra- and one subocular. Only one previously reported instance with cyclopia and two proboscides is known. Four general types of proboscis formation are reviewed: holoprosencephalic, lateral nasal, accessory, and disruptive.
