## Abstract A review of the 17 previously reported cases of duplication 3p and study of a new patient who has a duplication of the chromosome segment 3p21โpter show a remarkably consistent phenotype among these patients and suggest some generalizations about prognosis. The manifestations include lo

Abstract
We report on a case of a 9โmonthโold female infant with a direct duplication of the 7p13โp22.1 chromosome region diagnosed by combining conventional cytogenetic, FISH, and multicolor banding (MCB) studies. Traditional Gโbanding detected a partial 7p duplication, which was further demonstrated to be entirely of chromosome 7 origin by using a whole chromosome paint for chromosome 7, and derived from 7p13โp22.1 by MCB. The infant presented with characteristic dysmorphic features, psychomotor retardation, and generalized hypotonia. The phenotypic manifestations of partial 7p trisomy with or without other chromosome involvement are briefly reviewed. Our observations in combination with other cases confirm that 7p trisomy due to dir dup(7p) can be regarded as a defined chromosome syndrome. ยฉ 2006 WileyโLiss, Inc.
