Abstract

Joubert syndrome is a rare neurological manifestation usually present in late infancy or early childhood with characteristic episodes of abnormal breathing pattern along with the neurological and other systemic involvement.We report a case of confirmed Joubert syndrome present in the immediate neonatal period with isolated spells of oxygen desaturations not accompanied by the classically described breathing pattern and absent neurological symptoms causing delay in the diagnosis. Isolated oxygen desaturation episodes could be a presenting manifestation of Joubert syndrome in a neonatal period.
