    The diagnostic challenge of Bohring-Opitz Syndrome, a rare genetic disorder has haunted clinicians for ages. Our patient was born at term via caesarean-section with a birth weight of 1.95 kilograms. She had mild laryngomalacia, gastroesophageal reflux disease and seizures. Physical signs included microcephaly, hemangioma, low set ears, cleft palate, micrognatia and the typical BOS posture. Chromosomal analysis showed 46 xx -Bohring-Opitz Syndrome overlapped with C- syndrome. Goal-directed holistic care with integration of parent/carer training was started very early. She succumbed to a Respiratory- Syncitial-Virus and Pseudomonas pneumonia complicated with sepsis at the age of two years and 11 months.
