Abstract: | We report on an infant with multiple congenital anomalies including complex craniosynostosis associated with an unbalanced karyotype, 46,XY,-2,+der(2),t(2;15)(q37;q26)pat. The previous report of a child with cloverleaf skull and partial duplication of 15q25----qter and the Man-on-Mouse Homology map suggests that a critical segment for synostosis of sutures may be in this region. |
