AB MIDAS  is  an  acronym  that  stands  for  MIcrophthalmia,  Dermal  Aplasia,  and  Sclerocornea.  This  genetic  disorder  is  characterized  by  irregular  linear  skin  erythema  of  head  and  neck,  microphthalmia,  corneal  opacities,  diaphragmatic  hernia,  respiratory  distress,  and  absent  cerebral  septum  pellucidum  leading  to  seizures.  The  association  of  MIDAS  Syndrome  and  severe  congenital  heart  defects/cardiomyopathy  has  been  reported.  Sudden  death  in  the  young  child  should  lead  toward  this  diagnosis.
