Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Chromosome 17p13.3 is a region of genomic instability associated with different neurodevelopmental diseases. The malformation spectrum of 17p13.3 microdeletions ranges from an isolated lissencephaly sequence to Miller-Dieker syndrome, while 17p13.3 microduplications result in autism, learning disabilities, microcephaly and other brain malformations. This study aims to provide a more comprehensive...
