A de novo interstitial deletion of the short arm of chromosome 3 was prenatally diagnosed in a male fetus, karyotype 46,XY,del(3)(pter----p14.2::p11----qter). The fetus had craniofacial dysmorphisms, a single transverse palmar crease, ulnar deviation in the wrists, cardiovascular anomalies, a slight

Two boys (W.M. and C.P.) are described, in each of whom a short-arm deleted C chromosome was apparently present. The clinical findings on W.M. are stenosis of the sagittal sutura associated with atrophy of the nervus opticus and mental retardation, and on C.P. osteogenesis imperfecta. An analysis of
Deletions in the short arm of chromosome 3 have long been known to be common in many tumor types, including carcinomas of the lung and kidney. Small interstitial deletions of the proximal-central region of 3p, with band 3p14 as a minimal common deleted segment, have recently been shown to occur in a
A 46, XX, del(20) (p11) karyotype (Paris Conference, 1971) was identified in an 11-month-old French-Canadian girl with a dysmorphic syndrome, multiple congenital anomalies, psychomotor and growth retardation. Both parents had normal phenotype and karyotype.
