Özet

The short arm of chromosome 16 and especially the region 16p13.11 is a chromosome region where many structural variants, especially deletions and duplications, can be observed. Although deletions of this region are clinically well defined, duplications are rare, and so far, there is no established clinical consensus in regard with its clinical picture, and especially the dysmorphic perspective of the disease is far from being clear. A 5-year-and-2-month-old patient who presented with epilepsy, autism and late speech onset complaints was evaluated in our genetics department. On physical examination, unilateral preauricular skin tag and upslanting palpebral fissures were noted. Microarray analysis was performed and reported as ([hg19]: 16p13.11 (14.897.804-16.730.375) x3). The literature review revealed only a few reports about the syndrome, but some dysmorphological findings appear to recur in different reports, which enables a possible characterization. Dysmorphic findings were discussed.
