Associated Central Nervous System (CNS) and non-CNS malformations have been broadly reviewed. However, the coexistence of a large ocular lipodermoid has never been mentioned. We reported a female newborn with multiple congenital anomalies, including complete agenesis of the corpus callosum with intracranial midline lipoma, a large epibulbar lipodermoid over the entire left cornea and a large Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD). No clinical neurological or cardiac symptoms or signs were noted during admission. She received an ocular tumor excision with amniotic membrane transplantation on the left eye at 10 days old.
