Abstract

We have experienced a case of dup (3q) syndrome in the neonate who had a multiple congenital anomalies of hypertrichosis, hypertelorism, upslanting palpaberal fissures, anteverted nostrils, long philtrum, micrognathia, downturned corners of the mouth, highly arched palate, short, webbed neck, clinodactyly, rocker-bottom feet, dermal sinus. Cytogenetic studies showed a duplication 3q21-->qter regions. Chromosome study of relatives is extremely important for counseling because only 25% of cases represented de novo duplications. We reported the case with the review of the associated literatures.
