A 28-month-old girl with dysmorphic craniofacial features, microcephaly,
hypotonia, psychomotor retardation, failure to thrive and
gastrointestinal problems was referred for clinical evaluation.
Array-CGH analysis revealed one of the smallest de novo microdeletions
on chromosome 16q21q22.1, 2.03 Mb in size. Advanced molecular analysis
contributes to more precise genotype-phenotype correlation and accurate
definition of the breakpoints in the deleted/duplicated regions. (C)
