Approximately, 46 cases of constitutional interstitial 5q deletion have been reported to date [Baekvad-Hansen et al., 2006; Malan et al., 2006; Tzschach et al., 2006; Cardoso et al., 2009]. The majority of these cases were characterized by standard karyotyping methods, hence, delineation of the precise cytogenetic defects in these patients is important to understand their clinical phenotype, implicate novel genes that underlie the pathogenesis, and differentiate disease-causing genomic imbalances from benign copy number variations in the human genome. In recent years, novel molecular cytogenetic methods such as fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) and array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) have been employed to accurately characterize chromosome abnormalities that cause human disease phenotype [Higgins et al., 2008].
