ABSTRACT
1q44 deletion is a rare syndrome associated with facial dysmorphism and developmental delay, in particular related with expressive speech, seizures, and hypotonia (ORPHA238769). Until today, the distinct genetic causes for the different symptoms remain not entirely clear. We present a patient with a 2.3-Mb 1q44 deletion, including AKT3, ZBTB18, and HNRNPU, who shows microcephaly, developmental delay, abnormal corpus callosum, and seizures. The genetic findings in this case and a review of the literature spotlight a region between 243 Mb and 245 Mb on chromosome 1q related to the genesis of the typical symptoms of 1q44 deletion.
