title: Multiple congenital anomaly/mental retardation (MCA/MR) syndrome with Goldenhar complex due to a terminal del(22q).
abstract: We present a case of terminal del(22q) with Goldenhar complex including hemifacial microsomia, bilateral epibulbar dermoids, preauricular tags with sensorineural hearing loss, vertebral anomalies, and CNS and renal malformations. The case illustrates causal heterogeneity of the Goldenhar complex and a previously unreported associated chromosome deletion.
