    Abstract:
    A 1-year-and-3-month-old girl presented with psychomotor retardation, developmental delay, clinodactyly of the thumb, coarctation of the aorta, patent ductus arteriosus, peripheral pulmonary stenosis, atrial septal defect, microcephaly, brachycephaly, a small oval face, almond-shaped eyes, a down-turned mouth, a widened nasal bridge, hypertelorism, epicanthic folds, long philtrum, low-set large ears and but no craniosynostosis. Oligonucleotide-based array comparative genomic hybridization revealed a -4.79-Mb deletion of 3p26.2 --> pter encompassing CHL1 and CNTN4, and a -19.56-Mb duplication of 5q34 --> qter encompassing MSX2, NKX2-5 and NSD1. The karyotype of the girl was 46,XX,der(3)t(3;5)(p26.2;q34) pat. The present case adds distal 5q duplication to the list of chromosome aberrations associated with coarctation of the aorta.
