Terminal deletion of the short arm of chromosome 3.
Deletion of the short arm of chromosome number 3, has been proposed as a distinctive syndrome, all cases are "de novo" deletions and the band 3p26 was systematically involved. The comparative study of the 21 reviewed cases (including one reported here) allows to conclude that there is no consistent association to delineate a typical clinical syndrome.
