Background: Partial trisomy of the long arm of chromosome 11 is a rare cytogenetic abnormality. It has been characterized by variable sized duplications that lead to a range of phenotypes including growth retardation, developmental delay/intellectual disability, and distinctive craniofacial abnormalities. Congenital heart defects, skeletal abnormalities, urogenital anomalies, and hypotonia are found in some affected individuals.

Unlabelled: Ring chromosomes (RCs) are uncommon cytogenetic findings, and RC11 has only been described in 19 cases in the literature. Endocrine abnormalities associated with RC11 were reported for two of these cases. The clinical features of RC11 can result from an alteration in the structure of the genetic material, ring instability, mosaicism, and various extents of genetic material loss.

Partial trisomy of 11q is characterized by pre/postnatal growth retardation, microcephaly, dysmorphic craniofacial features, cognitive disability, abnormal muscle tone, inguinal hernia, and possible congenital heart defects. Here, we describe a 17-year-old male with a 17.77 Mb-sized [arr 11q23.

Here we describe clinical and cytogenetic data on a female child whom had been referred to our laboratory suspected to have Turner syndrome since she had webbed neck. Cytogenetic analysis revealed that she had deletion at 11q23.2 to 11q terminal so her karyotype was ascertained as 46,XX,del(11)(q23.

Constitutional 11q deletion is a chromosome imbalance possibly found in MCA/MR patients analyzed for chromosomal anomalies. Its role in determining the phenotype depends on extension and position of deleted region. Loss of heterozygosity of 11q (region 11q23) is also associated with neuroblastoma, the most frequent extra cranial cancer in children.
