  • Abstract
    A 3-month old girl with monosomy for distal part of the short arm of chromosome 3 is described. Physical examination showed growth retardation, microcephaly, ptosis, micrognathia, low set ears, broad nasal bridge, Simian crease, long philtrum, thin lips and hypertelorism. The patient’s clinical phenotype largely resembled that of 3p-syndrome but her karyotype was more complicated than just losing the telo- meric portion (3p-25.3) of the short arm of one of her chromosomes 3. Her karyotype was 46, XX, t(2;18) (p12;q12.1), del(3) (p23p26), t(3; 9;15;20) (q13;p23;q12;p12). Her parents showed a normal karyotype pattern.
