Abstract: | We describe a patient with a paracentric inversion and partial duplication of chromosome 5p. In addition this patient presented with a malformation pattern consistent with Opitz BBBG syndrome. This implies that the gene responsible for this single gene defect may be located within this duplicated region. |
