Otocephaly is a rare congenital abnormality characterized by the absence or underdevelopment of the mandible, misplacement of the ears towards the front, a small mouth, and absence or underdevelopment of the tongue. The syndrome complex of otocephaly can be categorized into four types based on associated anomalies. We present a case of this congenital anomaly in a newborn baby delivered by a 40-year-old woman who presented in active labor with premature rupture of membranes. Unfortunately, the newborn did not survive due to severe respiratory distress, which was consistent with the clinical features of this congenital anomaly. The rarity of otocephaly poses challenges for both parents and healthcare providers. Early antenatal scans are suggested for the early diagnosis of this condition. Further research and awareness are needed to better understand and manage this rare congenital disorder.
