Ellis-van Creveld syndrome (EVC) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by chondral and ectodermal dysplasia. Clinical features may include polydactyly, growth retardation, short ribs, and heart defects. The exact prevalence is still unclear; however, the Amish community in the United States is the most common community to report this rare disease. Until now, only six cases have been reported in Saudi Arabia so far. This is the first case to be reported in the Jazan region. Jazan covers an area of 11,671 km² and has a population of 1,567,547 at the 2017 census. This region has the highest population density with a high consanguinity marriage rate. We present a case of EVC with typical clinical findings, which was confirmed by homozygous mutation in the  EVC2  gene in the region of Jazan, Saudi Arabia. Besides the six cases that were reported from Saudi Arabia, this makes it a total of seven cases. The prenatal findings are considered a good predictor of the disease outcome. More effort is needed in making a national registry of rare disorders to report such cases and provide more awareness among highly consanguinity marriage communities.
