To present the prenatal diagnosis of de novo distal 11q deletions and a review of the literature. CLINICAL SUBJECTS AND METHODS: A 31-year-old primigravid woman underwent amniocentesis at 20 weeks' gestation because of a maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein (MSAFP) level of 2.63 multiples of the median. Amniocentesis demonstrated a karyotype of 46,XY,del(11)(q24.2). The parental karyotypes were normal. Level II ultrasound revealed short femurs and humeri, and overlapping of the toes. Postnatally, the proband manifested additional findings of the characteristic facial dysmorphism and camptodactyly. A 38-year-old gravida 2, para 1, woman underwent amniocentesis at 18 weeks' gestation because of advanced maternal age. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 46,XX,del(11)(q24.1). The parental karyotypes were normal. Level II ultrasound did not show fetal structural abnormalities. Postnatally, the proband manifested characteristic facial dysmorphism and camptodactyly.
