Ankyloblepharon filiforme adnatum (AFA) is a rare congenital anomaly consisting of partial or complete fusion of the eyelid margins. It is usually isolated and benign, but its presence should alert the neonatologist as it may rarely be associated with other disorders. We present a case of a 3-day-old newborn presenting with isolated AFA at birth.

F-Fluorination of sensitive molecules is often challenging, but can be accomplished under suitably mild conditions using radiofluorinated prosthetic groups (PGs). Herein, 1-alkylamino-7-[F]fluoro-8-azaisatoic anhydrides ([F]AFAs) are introduced as versatile F-labeled building blocks that can be used as amine-reactive or "click chemistry" PGs. [F]AFAs were efficiently prepared within 15 min by "on cartridge" radiolabeling of readily accessible trimethylammonium precursors.

A male neonate who was unable to open both eyes with the adhesion of upper and lower palpebral margins since birth was clinically diagnosed as bilateral ankyloblepharon filiforme adnatum. The fused eyelids were divided surgically under general anesthesia. The neonate can open and close eyes normally with right positions of eyelids and flexible movements of eyeballs to follow light after the surgery.

Ankyloblepharon filiforme adnatum (AFA) is a rare congenital anomaly consisting of partial or complete adhesion of the upper and lower eyelids, and it can be an isolated finding, or associated with other multisystemic anomalies. Its presence should alert the neonatologist of the need for a detailed systemic evaluation. We present a twenty day old baby who presented to our facility on the 8th of August 2019, with bilateral adhesions of the upper and lower eyelids, and had them excised with the use of McPherson's forceps and Vannas scissors, with no sedation or anesthesia.
