Miller-Dieker Syndrome due to a 5.5-Mb 17p Deletion in a 17;Y Pseudodicentric Chromosome.

Miller-Dieker syndrome (MDS) is a contiguous gene deletion syndrome in which almost all patients present de novo 17p13.3 deletions. We report on a male infant with MDS and an unusual unbalanced translocation involving chromosomes Y and 17 that resulted in a large 5.5-Mb 17pterp13.2 deletion and a karyotype with 45 chromosomes. Apart from the deletion of the MDS critical region, the deletion of additional distal genes seemed to have no major influence on the patient's phenotype, since he did not show any unusual clinical findings that are not commonly described in MDS patients.
