D u p l i c a t i o n s o f c h r o m o s o m e r e g i o n 15q11q13 often occur as a supernumerary chromosome 15. Less frequently they occur as interstitial duplications [dup(15)]. We describe the clinical and molecular characteristics of three patients with de novo dup(15). The patients, two males

Ebstein anomaly (EA) is a relatively uncommon congenital heart defect and it is very rarely associated with a chromosomal anomaly. We report two distinct rearrangements of the chromosomal region 11q arm in two unrelated patients with Ebstein anomaly, renal malformation, minor anomalies, and the Pier
We read with interest the paper by Leana-Cox et al. [1996] which reported on 5 families with recurrent Di-George/velocardiofacial syndrome and deletions of chromosome 22q11 (del22q11), and which reviewed the pertinent literature. The authors observed that up to 25% of del22q11 are inherited. Particu
Chromosomal region 15q11-q13 has been implicated to harbor a susceptibility gene or genes underlying autism. Evidence has been derived from the existence of cytogenetic anomalies in this region associated with autism, and the report of linkage in a modest collection of multiplex families. Most recen
