Distal 18q deletion without clinical findings of 18q- syndrome.
A de nova translocation of long arm of chromosome 3 to the distal third of long arm of 18 was detected in a 10 years old boy, whose phenotype has been somewhat affected. Although the translocation has resulted in loss of distal segment of 18q, clinically he bears little resemblance to 18q- syndrome.
