Moebius syndrome has been recognized for more than a century - yet its history is rarely explored.

Moebius Syndrome: A History of a Rare Condition traces the medical evolution of this congenital neurological disorder from early clinical observation to modern imaging and developmental research. Over time, physicians moved from scattered case descriptions to a structured understanding rooted in brainstem anatomy and diagnostic clarity.

This book follows that progression.

It examines how nineteenth-century clinicians first described congenital facial paralysis, how Paul Julius Möbius localized the deficit, how twentieth-century debates refined classification, and how advances in embryology, imaging, and genetics clarified the condition without overturning its core definition.

Inside, readers will find:
