Abstract

The results of clinical and molecular genetic study of the patient with psychomotor delay, phenotype abnormalities and multiple congenital malformations of systems and organs are presented. A standard cytogenetic study determined a double translocation between chromosomes 2 and 6 and chromosomes 7 and 11, confirmed by the FISH method. Chromosomal microarray analysis revealed a deletion of 6q14.1 region at the break point on the long arm of chromosome 6. The deletion involves several dozen genes, including PHIP, FILIP1, MYO6, HTR1B, IMPG1, EVOLV4, TENT5A genes, which are most likely associated with clinical symptoms in the patient.
