Abstract
Seckel syndrome is a rare genetic disorder with autosomal recessive inheritance. It is associated with many CNS anomalies along with involvement of other systems. We present a case of Seckel syndrome with semilobar holoprosencephaly as associated CNS anomaly, which to the best of our knowledge has not been reported earlier.
