We experinced a case of Dandy-Walker syndrome with complex cardiac anomaly in female newborn who presented with apnea at birth. Physical examination showed coloboma on left eye, low estting malformed ear, and high arched palate. Autopsy revealed cystic dilatation of the fourth ventricle with secondary loss of cerebellar vermis. The floor of the fourth ventricle is exposed through this defect.
