Abstract
We report on a girl with a de novo 6q1 interstitial deletion. To our knowledge, this is the second reported case with a deletion of 6q11-q15. We review the phenotype of monosomy 6q1. Our patient has manifestations similar to others with monosomy 6q1 including mental deficiency, growth retardation, short neck, and minor facial anomalies.
