Abstract
A critical region exists at 5p13 for the phenotype associated with duplication 5p. Two unrelated Polynesian children are reported with supernumerary marker chromosomes (SMCs) 5. This brings to seven the total of reported SMCs derived from chromosome 5. The phenotype is clear, and the level of mosaicism of the marker chromosomes is contributory to the clinical severity.

## Abstract Unstable, geneβrich pericentric regions have been associated with various structural aberrations including small supernumerary marker chromosomes (sSMCs). We hereby report on a complex pure mosaic sSMCs derived from chromosomes 11 and 19 in a child featuring multiple congenital anomalie
