A Rare Case of Telecanthus-Hypospadias Syndrome in a Pediatric Patient

Hypertelorism and hypospadias are the main characteristics of telecanthus-hypospadias syndrome; however, it can also include other midline structural anomalies, such as cleft lip and palate, cryptorchidism, congenital heart problem, laryngotracheal cleft, esophageal fistula, and irregular scrotum. Here, we describe an eight-year-old male who was brought to us for cleft lip repair, but upon evaluation, the other listed anomalies were discovered. He had hypertelorism, hypospadias, a ventricular septal defect, and a history of cryptorchidism. A multidisciplinary approach involved pediatricians, oral surgeons, cardiologists, and pediatric surgeons. The patient underwent surgery for first-stage hypospadias correction and was advised to follow up for additional surgery and maintenance procedures before being discharged. We wish to report this case with the aim to enlighten budding pediatricians and surgeons about this rare syndrome.
