Brief clinical report: interstitial deletion of the long arm of chromosome 10: del(10)(q11.2q21). 1985

J J Holden, and E A MacDonald

A de novo interstitial deletion of part of the long arm of chromosome 10 [del(10)(q11.2q21)] was identified by GTG (G-bands by trypsin using Giemsa) banding in a 9-year-old girl with mental retardation and minor anomalies. Only one other case of a similar deletion has been reported [Ray et al, 1980] and the phenotypic findings of the two cases are compared.

D008607 Intellectual Disability Subnormal intellectual functioning which originates during the developmental period. This has multiple potential etiologies, including genetic defects and perinatal insults. Intelligence quotient (IQ) scores are commonly used to determine whether an individual has an intellectual disability. IQ scores between 70 and 79 are in the borderline range. Scores below 67 are in the disabled range.

D002658 Developmental Disabilities Disorders in which there is a delay in development based on that expected for a given age level or stage of development. These impairments or disabilities originate before age 18, may be expected to continue indefinitely, and constitute a substantial impairment. Biological and nonbiological factors are involved in these disorders.
