The article describes a case of Goldenhar syndrome that had been diagnosed by an ophthalmologist in a medical consultation by school bullying due to a choristoma. A 15-year-old male patient, who had a nodular lesion with hair in the inferior temporal corneal-limbo-conjunctival of the left eye, was reported. He also had a facial asymmetry, with mild mandibular hypoplasia and malformation of the left external ear, where only an auricular appendage was formed. He denied similar family history and the history of genetic diseases, but revealed that his mother had used ibuprofen during the first 3 months of pregnancy and had gestational diabetes mellitus. Excisional biopsy of the eye lesion was performed and revealed a dermoid cyst. After the exegesis and with adequate multidisciplinary monitoring, the patient reported being very satisfied with the aesthetic result, returning with more confidence to his daily activities. That was a typical case of Goldenhar syndrome that has remained undiagnosed and untreated for more than a decade due to a lack of diagnosis despite its classic presentation. The delay in the approach resulted in social stigma and profound psychosocial damage. The importance of disseminating the correct knowledge of this pathology and of having an early multidisciplinary approach in these patients is emphasized, since the impact on the quality of life is significantly high.

Objective: To report a case of acquired anterior staphyloma after trauma and its first surgical management. Methods: This is a case report of a 17-year-old man who had a history of trauma by insect on the right eye, without a previous history of eye conditions, and evolved with local pain and low visual acuity. The ophthalmological exam showed light perception visual acuity in right eye and 1,0 in left eye, anterior staphyloma and impossibility to blink. The first surgical procedure proposed was sclerokeratoplasty and the second one an optical transplantation but, after step one, the patient did not return to the service and missed the follow-up. Results: Sclerokeratoplasty was proposed once the posterior segment and the crystalline were preserved in topical position. The anterior tumor was excised in free-cut and corneal-scleral graft sutured in single points with 10-0 mononylon. Gatifloxacin 0.3% with Prednisolone Acetate 1%, Epitezan® and Atropine 1% were prescribed immediately postoperative. After 60 postoperative days, he maintained the use of Dexamethasone 0.1% and Atropine 1% and the patient had visual acuity of perception of hand movement in the affected eye. Conclusion: Few treatment options are alternatives to evisceration. In this case report, the sclerokeratoplasty was the chosen technique for the initial management. The second step was not possible due to loss of follow-up. Despite the uncomplicated procedure, we need greater compliance by the patient to conclude the treatment.
