Three cases of partial deletion of the short arm of chromosome 18 (pll-pter) are presented. The cytogenetic and clinical features of the patients observed are compared to cases found in the literature. 18p-aberration produces a fairly unique phenotypic alteration, but on the sole basis of the clinical manifestation, without cytogenetic analysis, correct diagnosis cannot be established.
