Clinical and genetic findings in the proband. a Representation of deleted regions within PTPRD. Black bars represent the deleted segments whereas the green one represents the BAC clone CTD-L2154L8 used in FISH. b Photograph of the proband at 3 years 6 months. The patient shows trigonocephaly, scaphocephaly, midface hypoplasia, a flat nose, a depressed nasal bridge, downslanting palpebral fissures, low set and large ears, a long philtrum, and a drooping mouth c FISH analysis confirming the presence of intron 8 on chromosome 9p. Arrowheads in red indicate a centromeric probe on chr9, and arrows in green indicate CTD-2154L8 mapping IVS8
