Summary
A bilobed posterior tongue is a rare malformation with few reported cases in the literature. This anomaly has not been demonstrated in patients with Goldenhar syndrome. We report a case of a 5-month-old child with the classic signs of Goldenhar syndrome and laryngomalacia with an incidental finding of a bilobed posterior tongue. Careful assessment and monitoring are crucial, especially in syndromic babies.
