In an attempt to determine the critical monosomic segment involved in 4p.sbd.syndrome, the precise breakpoints of 5 inherited cases with the synmdrome were studied using a high-resolution banding technique. The 5 patients ranged in age at diagnosis from newborn to 15 mo., 4 of whom coudl be clinical diagnosed as having 4p.sbd.syndrome. Common clinical features included mental retardation, low birth weight, growth failure, hypotonia, microcephaly, peculiar facial dysmorpia and ear malformations. Karyotypesof the 5 were 46,XX,-4,+der(4),t(4;21) (p16.1;q22.3)pat; 46,XX,-4,+der(4), inv ins(4;9)(p15.32p16.3;q34.3)pat 46,XX,rec(4),del p,inv(4)(p15.2q35)pat; and 46,XX,-4,+der(4),t(4;18) (p15.2;11.21)mat (2 cases, related). Evidently, monosomy for the proximal half of the 4p16 band is sufficient to express 4p-syndrome.
