    Abstract:
    We describe the anesthetic management of a 5-year-old girl diagnosed with Seckel syndrome, for cleft lip surgery. The syndrome is characterized by severe intrauterine and postnatal growth retardation with proportional dwarfism, typical beak-like triangular nose, and mental retardation, accounting for its various synonyms such as bird-headed dwarfism, microcephalic primordial dwarfism, nanocephalic dwarfism and Seckel-type dwarfism.
