Abstract
Oculofaciocardiodental (OFCD) syndrome is an X-linked dominant condition that is typically lethal in males. A 13-month-old male patient with OFCD syndrome presented with hepatoblastoma. He received chemotherapy per standard of care and had a surgical resection with few complications. He received sodium thiosulfate for otoprotection and dexrazoxane for cardioprotection. Five years after diagnosis, he remains well and in remission. Malignancies have been reported in patients with OFCD syndrome; however, our patient is the only male with OFCD syndrome described with hepatoblastoma. Given the rarity of this condition, malignancy may be part of the spectrum of disease.
