Here we summarize the clinical findings of five new patients and nine patients reported in the literature with deletions of the short arm of chromosome 6. The del(6p) syndrome appears to include the following clinical findings: mental retardation, microcephaly, abnormal sutures, broad nasal bridge, various eye and ear abnormalities, a short neck with excess skin folds, and a normal birth weight and length.

## Abstract We report on molecular studies in 7 patients with WolfβHirschhorn syndrome (WHC) not showing an obvious chromosome 4p deletion. Analysis of a set of polymorphic probes mapping in the 4p16.3 region showed the absence of paternal haplotypes in 5 cases, and maternal haplotypes in 2. These
## Abstract Interstitial deletions of the long arm of chromosome 3 are uncommon. Most cases are related to the blepharophimosisβptosisβepicanthus inversus syndrome (BPES), which is mapped to 3q23. We report on a case with a de novo chromosomal deletion of 3q23 and 3q25. We review the literature on
