摘要: Cote et al. [1981] suggested that ring chromosomes with or without deletions share a common pattern of phenotypic anomalies, regardless which chromosome is involved. The phenotype this 'general syndrome' consists growth failure malformations, few no minor and mild to moderate mental retardation. We reconsidered the 2 case previously published by [1981], we characterized it array CGH, polymorphic markers as well subtelomere MLPA FISH analysis. A terminal deletion (q37.3qter) maternal origin long arm was detected confirmed all above-mentioned methods. Ring cases are exceedingly rare. Only 18 cases, including present one, have been so far, our patient longest reported survivor, 35-year follow-up, third array-CGH
