antimongolian slant, small nose and anteverted nostrils, thin protruding lips with downturning of the
comer, micrognathia, low set ears, generalized hirsuitism, and growth redardation.
The patient also had skeletal abnormalities of hands. Chromosomal analysis revealed abnormal-
ities in chromosome 3(46, XY, 3q2, trisomy). |
