Abstract excerpt
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.
