DiGeorge anomaly (DGA) and velo-cardiofacial syndrome (VCFS) are frequently associated with monosomy of chromosome region 22qll. Most patients have a submicroscopic deletion, recently estimated to be at least 1-2 Mb. It is not clear whether individuals who present with only some of the features of t

## Abstract Polymicrogyria is a brain malformation due to abnormal cortical organization. Two histological types, unlayered or fourβlayered can be distinguished. Polymicrogyria is a rare manifestation of chromosome 22q11 deletion syndrome. We report two boys with chromosome 22q11 deletion syndrome
Two infants with chromosome 22q11 deletion syndrome were noted to have symmetrically enlarged Sylvian fissures on cranial MRI. We compared the size of the Sylvian fissures in neuroimaging studies from 17 other subjects with del 22q11 to agematched disease controls. The mean anterior interopercular d
Skeletal anomalies in patients with a 22q11.2 deletion are reported infrequently. We report the skeletal findings in 108 patients with a 22q11.2 deletion, of whom 37 (36%) had a skeletal anomaly. Twenty-two patients (20%) had anomalies of the limbs, 7 of the upper limb, including preaxial or postaxi
