Sumario:Ellis–Van Creveld syndrome (EVC), also known as mesoectodermal dysplasia, is a rare autosomal recessive disorder with a tetrad of clinical features, comprising dwarfism, polydactyly, ectodermal dysplasia with sparse hair, hypoplastic nails and enamel, hypodontia and conical teeth and congenital heart disease (CHD). We report an 18-year-old girl with short stature and polydactyly, who got admitted to our hospital with shortness of breath on exertion for the last 2 years. On echocardiography, a partial atrioventricular canal (AV canal) defect was diagnosed, which was repaired surgically. The patient had an uneventful perioperative period.
