title: [Syndromes 3. Velo-cardio-facial (VCF/Shprintzen) syndrome].
abstract: The clinical symptomatology of the velo-cardio-facial (VCF/Shprintzen) syndrome is briefly described. In VCF syndrome a microdeletion of chromosome 22q11.2 can be found, as well as in a number of other clinical entities, leading to the conclusion that it is probably better to speak of the 22q11.2 clinical spectrum.
