Child with Sotos phenotype and a 5:15 translocation.

We report on a 4-year-old girl with Sotos phenotype and a de novo balanced translocation between the long arms of chromosome 5 and chromosome 15 [46,XX,t(5,15)(q35;q22)]. We suggest a relationship between genetic material at 5q35 or 15q22 and the expression of an autosomal dominant gene.
