Popis: | A 1-year-old girl with an interstitial deletion of the long arm of chromosome 16 is reported. She was characterized by a distinct craniofacial dysmorphism, meningoencephalocele, mild hydrocephalus, short neck, broad great toes and abnormally positioned toes. High resolution GTG and RBG banding analyses revealed a karyotype: 46,XX,del(16) (q13q22) de novo. An analysis of the smallest region of overlap revealed that the critical band region for 16q deletion syndrome is 16q21. |
