title: The anesthetic management of a patient with chromosome 10qter deletion syndrome.
abstract: Terminal deletions of chromosome 10q are uncommon. The resulting syndrome includes cardiac and facial anomalies, urogenital abnormalities, limb defects, and mental retardation. Most affected infants require surgical correction of these anomalies. Presented are features inherent in the syndrome that will aid the anesthesiologist in the perioperative management of such patients.
