We present a case with a partial duplication 5p11→5p13.3 resulting from a maternal ins (19,5)(p11;p11-p13.3). The diagnosis was confirmed by FISH and complement component determinations. The clinical picture was similar to those described in patients with complete duplication of the short arm and in

✦ Synopsis
Two sibs with partial trisomy-5p are reported. Their father is the carrier of a balanced translocation 46,XY,t(4q+;5p-).

The most common abnormalities found were mental retardation, short stature, dolichocephaly, prominent nasal bridge, prognathism, seizures, hypotonia, ear abnormalities, increased ulnar loops on the fingertips, and cryptorchidism in affected males.
