We report a mentally retarded girl with minimal dysmorphic signs. Cytogenetic examination showed an interstitial deletion of chromosome 8: 46, XX, del(8)(p21.2p22). This deletion has not been reported before. We compare the patient with the literature data.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
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.
