A number of genetic syndromes have been identified and can be diagnosed antenatally using ultrasonography signifying the importance of antenatal care. We report a rare case of familial treacher collins syndrome diagnosed postnatally that shows difficulties faced by an obstetrician to safely manage such cases.
