Array-CGH revealed one of the smallest 16q21q22.1 microdeletions in a female patient with psychomotor retardation
Abstract
A 28-month-old girl with dysmorphic craniofacial features, microcephaly, hypotonia, psychomotor retardation, failure to thrive and gastrointestinal problems was referred for clinical evaluation. Array-CGH analysis revealed one of the smallest de novo microdeletions on chromosome 16q21q22.1, 2.03 Mb in size. Advanced molecular analysis contributes to more precise genotype-phenotype correlation and accurate definition of the breakpoints in the deleted/duplicated regions.
