“…In many cases, cyclopia was reported in sheep, goats, cows and buffaloes, however in many of observed cases, only cylopia or cyclopia with mandibular bones malformations were reported (Ozcan et al 2006, Hamali and Chador 2010, Karan et al 2011, Sutaria et al 2012, Eftekhari et al 2013). The cases of arhinia, cyclopia without nasal spaces or structures, are rarely seen (Sutaria et al 2012).…”

“…An abnormal chromosome related with head part is reported to be cause of cyclopia (Gondré-Lewis et al 2015). In ruminants, cyclopia is observed as one eye or two eyes side by side in an eyehole or with the malformations of mouth, nose, upper and low mandibular bones (Ozcan et al 2006, Hamali and Chador 2010, Karan et al 2011, Sutaria et al 2012.Otocephaly is one of these congenital anomalies and it is observed with the malformations of maxillary and mandibular bones, the lack of tongue and nasal bone. Additionally, the auricle is placed at the medium, basal part of the head.…”

In this report, a case of cyclopia with otocephaly in a Pirlak lamb was presented which has not been reported previosly in ruminants. A two years old-nulliparous Pirlak ewe was referred to the clinics of Afyon Kocatepe University, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine with the complaint of dystocia. Cesarean section was performed and a dead female lamb was extracted out from the uterus. The number and size of placentomes were reduced at the placental sites. Morphologic and macroscopic examination of the lamb demonstrated that there were some congenital anomalies, especially an eye (cyclopia) and otocephaly, at the head of lamb, however no other anomalies were defined at the other parts of body. On the other hand there were no whole mouth space, maxillar and mandibular bones, teeth (dysgnathia), no nose (arhinia) and tongue (aglossia). Nevertheless, there was a small hole at the bottom of the one eye opening to pharynx, oesophagus and trachea (microstomia). The left and right auricles were adherent together on the both sides of the small hole (synotia). At necropsy, the brain was not normal, rather small and edematous, having any brain lobes and gyrus. Examination of thoracic, abdominal and pelvic spaces revealed no abnormality.Key Words: Congenital Anomalies, Cyclopia, Otocephaly, Pirlak Lamb Pırlak Bir Kuzuda Otosefali ile Birlikte Gözlenen Siklopiya Olgusu ÖZBu raporda Pırlak ırkı bir dişi kuzuda ruminantlarda daha önceden rapor edilmeyen otosefali ile beraber gözlenen siklopi olgusu sunuldu. İki yaşında olan nullipar Pırlak ırkı bir koyun güç doğum sebebiyle Afyon Kocatepe Üniversitesi, Veteriner Fakültesi kliniklerine getirildi. Koyuna sezaryen operasyonu uygulandı ve ölü bir dişi kuzu uterustan çıkartıldı. Plasental bölgelerde plasentomlar sayıca az ve çapları küçük olarak belirlendi. Kuzuya yapılan morfolojik ve makroskobik muayenelerde hayvanın baş bölgesinde özellikle siklopi ve otosefali olmak üzere bazı anomalilerin olduğu belirlenirken, diğer vücut bölümlerinde herhangi bir anomaliye rastlanılmadı. Bunu yanı sıra tam bir ağız boşluğunun olmadığı, maksillar ve mandibular kemiklerin, dişlerin (dysgnathia), burunun (arhinia) ve dilin oluşmadığı (aglossia) gözlendi. Ayrıca, farinkse, özofagusa ve trakeyaya (microstomia) açılan ve tek göz açıklığının alt kısmında küçük bir delik belirlendi. Bu küçük deliğin her iki tarafında sağ ve sol kulak kepçelerinin birbirine yapışık olduğu gözlendi (synotia). Nekropside beynin anormal yapıda, çok küçük ve ödematöz olduğu, beyin loblarının ve giruslarının bulunmadığı tespit edildi. Torasik, abdominal ve pelvik boşlukların muayenesinde bir anormalliğe rastlanmadı.

“…Although cyclopia has been described in human fetuses with normal chromosomes (Hata, Hanaoka, & Mashima, 2014), chromosomal anomalies are the most common genetic cause of this condition (Howard, 1977). Cyclopia is widely represented in the phylogeny of vertebrates, from fish (Bejarano-Álvarez & Galván-Magaña, 2013) to mammals (Chiang et al, 1996;Howard, 1977;Roux et al, 2000;Srinivasan, Joseph, & Koteswary, 2014;Stahl & Tourame, 2010;Sutaria, Sutaria, Patel, & Chauhan, 2012). This persistent occurrence of cyclopia in the Vertebrate clade may reflect interspecific parallelisms in the embryonic developmental mechanics involved in the origin of this teratological malformation.…”

Cellular identities in an unusual presentation of cyclopia in a chick embryo

2019

Cyclopia is a congenital anomaly characterized by the presence of a single or partially divided eye in a single orbit at the body midline. This condition is usually associated with other severe facial malformations, such as the absence of the nose and, on rare occasions, the presence of a proboscis located above the ocular structures. The developmental origin of cyclopia in vertebrates is the failure of the embryonic prosencephalon to divide properly during the formation of the two bilateral eyes. Although the developmental origin of the cyclopia‐associated proboscis is not clear, it has been suggested that this unique structure results from the disrupted morphogenesis of the olfactory placodes, the main organizers of the developing nose. In this study, we report a spontaneous congenital case of cyclopia with a proboscis‐like appendage in a chick embryo. By means of both conventional histology and immunohistochemical methods, we have analyzed this anomaly in detail to suggest an alternative identity for the anatomical embryonic features of cyclopic vertebrate embryos displaying a proboscis. Our findings are discussed in the context of previously reported cases of cyclopia, and provide additional insight into this complex congenital malformation.

Arhinia is a congenital nasal developmental anomaly that is seldom reported in literature, and especially not reported in domestic animals. This report describes a case of concurrent occurrence of congenital arhinia and choanal atresia in a day-old male kid which had no external nares with the nasal bones fused together with the nasal processes of the premaxillae presententing as a conical shaped rhinal structure with a tapering rostral apex and an occluded nasal vestibule. A bilateral osseous choanal atresia was also seen at the pharynx. Additionally, craniofacial and brain anomalies presented in this condition with right lateral deviation of the face and the absence of olfactory apparatus including olfactory bulbs, tracts and nerves and a vestigial trigonum olfactorium were noted. This, to the best of our knowledge is the first report in the literature indexed in the Medline of concurrent occurrence of congenital arhinia and choanal atresia in a goat.
