there is a number of syndromes, associated with proptosis, micrognathia, low-set ear and chest deformity. herein, we report a 9-year-old female with such phenotype who was presented with a vaginal neuroma. the result of karyotype showed 47xx, with extra marker chromosome 22. although such a manifestation had not been reported in the literature, it should be considered as a very rare manifestati...

Cat-eye syndrome is a rare genetic syndrome of chromosomal origin. Individuals with cat-eye syndrome are characterized by the presence of preauricular pits and/or tags, anal atresia, and iris coloboma. Many reported cases also presented with variable congenital anomalies and intellectual disability. Most patients diagnosed with CES carry a small supernumerary bisatellited marker chromosome, res...

Cat eye syndrome (OMIM 115470) is a genetic disorder results from abnormality of Chromosome 22. It is characterized by constellation of malformations. Growth is usually normal. We report on a 16 year old Saudi male with Cat eye syndrome (CES) who displayed mild clinical features. The cytogenetic studies confirmed the karyotype as 47XY+del 22q11, which is consistent with the diagnosis of cat eye...

The case of a 10-month-old girl with an extra G-like chromosome is presented. Quinacrine, trypsin-Giemsa, and reverse banding identified the extra chromosome as no. 22. The phenotype of the patient is unique in that unilateral iris coloboma was observed, unlike the 18 cases of full trisomy 22 already published. This represents the first reported case of full trisomy 22 with this coloboma, or 'c...
