title: Malformative syndrome with trigonocephaly, shallow orbits, ptosis, growth and mental retardation. De novo autosomal reciprocal t(9;13)(Q32;Q22) in a male patient.
abstract: We report a de novo autosomal reciprocal translocation t(9;13)(q32;q22) in a mildly to moderately mentally retarded boy. Clinically he presented the typical signs and symptoms of a recently delineated malformative syndrome characterized by trigonocephaly, shallow orbits, ptosis, mental and growth retardation.
