RESUMO

A brother and sister are reported with developmental delay and facial features suggestive of the Cornelia de Lange syndrome. Cytogenetic analysis showed them to be trisomic for the region 3q25.1-26.2 because of the inheritance of an unbalanced interchromosomal insertion from their father, who was a balanced insertion carrier. The clinical phenotype and cytogenetic analysis (including chromosome painting studies) in relation to the possible localisation of the Cornelia de Lange gene are discussed.
