New findings in partial trisomy 16q: clinical report.
UNLABELLED: Partial trisomy 16q is a rare disorder associated with significant dysmorphism, psychomotor retardation and limited postnatal survival. A female infant with a partial trisomy 16q from a de novo translocation 11;16 is described. Clinical findings were consistent with previous reports, with the exceptions of megalocornea, partial callosal agenesis and mild bilateral occipital lobe hypoplasia. CONCLUSION: Based on this clinical report, megalocornea, partial callosal agenesis and mild bilateral occipital lobe hypoplasia should perhaps be included in the list of anomalies associated with partial trisomy 16q.
