Abstract

Pfeiffer syndrome is a rare genetic disorder with heterogenous phenotype and prognosis. Due to its diverse clinical presentation, it can easily be misdiagnosed. Where genetic testing still remains a challenge, antenatal sonogram can aid in early diagnosis. The cranioorbito-faciostenosis demands aggressive management to permit survival instead of uniform early demise.
