Cerebro-costo-mandibular syndrome (CCM) is a very rare entity with oro-facial features closely resembling Pierre-Robin anomaly (1,2). We describe a patient with typical features: severe micrognathia, glossoptosis, central cleft soft palate and multiple posterior rib-gap defects seen on chest radiograph. Respiratory distress which was evident soon after birth was relieved by an oro-pharyngeal airway. He suffered from a cardiorespiratory arrest and succumbed, presumably secondary to aspiration of milk feeds, before a tracheostomy could be performed.
