Familial syndrome with some features of the Langer-Giedion syndrome, and paracentric inversion of chromosome 8, inv 8 (q11.23----q21.1).

A family is reported with an autosomal dominant inherited syndrome presenting some of the typical features of the tricho-rhino-phalangeal syndrome type II (TRP II) or Langer-Giedion syndrome. The critical region for the expression of the syndrome seems to be at band 8q24.1. In the affected members of the family reported here, anomaly of chromosome 8 was noted, involving however the proximal part of the 8 long arm, which was interpreted as a paracentric inversion. Whether the anomaly is causally or only casually related to the syndrome is a matter of discussion.
