Abstract: | The clinical history and subsequent progress of a child with an interstitial deletion in the short arm of chromosome 6 is described. This abnormality coupled with a reduced Hageman factor (Factor XII) led to an earlier publication which suggested that this gene was localized to the breakpoint region involved. A review of similar phenotypes from the literature is presented. |
