This results due to failure of migration of the neural crest cells and is a defect of the first branchial arch. It is incompatible with life and early prenatal diagnosis is useful.

This study was designed to establish the validity of a previously developed orbital nomogram for a high-risk population and to determine whether proved cases of hypotelorism and hypertelorism fell outside the normal ranges. Inner and outer orbital measurements of 422 fetuses were obtained prospectively during routine obstetrical sonography in a high-risk patient population.

Both foetuses had midline facial clefts, one of which was diagnosed prenatally.
