Abstract
Fetal hydantoin syndrome (FHS) is a spectrum of defects caused to the developing fetus by exposure to the teratogenic effects of antiepileptic drug (AED) phenytoin during pregnancy. Its clinical manifestations include limb abnormalities, ocular defects, central nervous system anomalies, intrauterine growth restriction, and hand and phalangeal anomalies. This case report presents an 8-year-old child born to an epileptic mother with a history of AED therapy, with features suggestive of FHS.
