Title: Interstitial deletion of 6q21-q23 associated with split hand

Journal Article · · American Journal of Medical Genetics

We report on a 7-month-old boy with interstitial deletion of 6q21-q23 and split-hand defect. He died at 7 months. This is the fifth patient with distal limb anomaly associated with a rearrangement of 6q21 region, and supports previous suggestions that there may be candidate gene(s) for distal limb development in the 6q21 region. 10 refs., 3 figs., 1 tab.
