Abstract
A girl with delayed growth in body height and weight, retarded psychomotor development, facial dysmorphism, high-arched palate, extension defects of elbows, and a probable hearing impairment is presented. A chromosome investigation by both conventional and high-resolution banding techniques revealed an apparently pure interstitial deletion of the proximal segment of the short arm of chromosome 3 (46,XX,del(3) (p11p14.2) de novo). The paternal karyotype is 47,XYY. The clinical features of the patient are compared with those of two previously reported cases in the literature with an interstitial 3p deletion.Entities:
