Abstract
A 3,780-g newborn girl had multiple, bilateral eyelid adhesions taht connected the upper and lower eyelids by bands of extensile tissue. Although the eyelid lesion was benign, the associated systemic abnormalities may have been serious. We doubt that a single intrauterine insult led to ankyloblepharon filiforme adnatum and the associated anomalies.
