This is a case report of a classical presentation of the Leopard syndrome from the Indian subcontinent. The male patient had progressively increasing generalised multiple lentiginosis, ocular hypertelorism, pulmonary stenosis, short stature, cryptorchidism, and pectus excavatum. The case is documented for its rarity in this part of the world and typical clinical presentation.
