Whole arm deletions of 18p: medical and developmental effects.

Abstract excerpt

Deletions of the short arm of chromosome 18 have been well-described in case reports. However, the utility of these descriptions in clinical practice is limited by varied and imprecise breakpoints. As we work to establish genotype-phenotype correlations for 18p-, it is critical to have accurate and complete clinical descriptions of individuals with differing breakpoints. In addition, the developmental profile of...
