Figure  1
Graphical representation of 15q deletions in patients with and without CDH. The most significant BAC clones analyzed are shown on the left. Solid boxes represent deleted regions, hatched boxes indicate the uncertainty of the breakpoints, and open boxes reveal the normal chromosomal regions. The green rectangle includes the narrowed candidate CDH region, taking into account only cases with CDH, whereas the red rectangle indicates the critical region resulting when the ring cases are omitted from the analysis. Patient 1, our case; patient 2, Tönnies et al. ; patient 3, Rogan et al. (patient K); patients 4–11 and 13, Klaassens et al. (cases 9, 7, 6, 4, 1, 2, 3, 5, and 8, respectively); patient 12, Tümer et al. (case 1).
