Abstract

We report on 2 patients with de novo terminal deletion of 6q. The first was a 4‐month‐old boy whose karyotype was 46, XY, del(6)(q24.3); the second a 2‐year‐old girl whose karyotype was 46, XX, del(6)(q25.3). The main anomalies in both patients included mental retardation, minor craniofacial and cerebral anomalies, and cardiac defects. The characteristic manifestations were imperforate anus in the first patient, and retinitis proliferans and a triatrial heart in the other. Comparison of clinical findings of our 2 patients with those of 18 previously reported patients with similar phenotypes suggests that terminal deletion of the 6q23 or 6q25 band is critical in producing the main anomalies of del(6q) syndrome.

## Abstract Partial duplication of chromosome 3q is a well‐described condition of multiple congenital anomalies and developmental delay that resembles the Brachmann‐de Lange syndrome.

Since the first patient with partial deletion of the long arm of chromosome 10 was described in 1978, another 23 cases have been reported, with the breakpoint ranging from 10q23.3-26.2. To contribute further to the delineation of the monosomy 10qter syndrome, we describe a female child who, at age 3
