Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The introduction of molecular karyotyping technologies facilitated the identification of specific genetic disorders associated with imbalances of certain genomic regions. A detailed phenotypic delineation of interstitial 16p13.3 duplications is hampered by the scarcity of such patients. OBJECTIVES: To delineate the phenotypic spectrum associated with interstitial 16p13.3 duplications, and perform a...
