Abstract
Background: There are few reported cases of Dandy-Walker Malformation associated with Noonan syndrome (NS).
Case presentation: We herein present a case of a late preterm infant with Dandy-Walker malformation (DWM) that underwent a workup for feeding difficulty and was found to have NS. This is one of the few reported cases of DWM with NS having a PTPN11 gene mutation.
Conclusion: Overlapping clinical features may disguise diagnosis in infants with multiple pathologies.
