    Abstract:
    We describe a newborn girl with multiple malformations associated with an interstitial deletion of chromosome 2q (q24q32). Clinical findings included growth retardation, microcephaly, facial malformations, common atrioventricular canal, digital anomalies of both hands and feet, and ovarian hypoplasia. Bilateral ocular anomalies included down-slanting palpebral fissures, blepharophimosis, microphthalmia, uveal coloboma, and corneal opacity. Chromosomal segment 2q31 may play a major role in the development of the eye and its adnexa.
