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