We present prenatal diagnosis and molecular cytogenetic characterization of de novo interstitial deletion of 7q (7q22.1 -> q31.1) by aCGH, FISH and QF-PCR in a fetus with an abnormal maternal serum screening result and ultrasound findings of facial cleft and hypogenitalism. We discuss the genotype-phenotype correlation and the consequence of haploinsufficiency of ZKSCAN5, ARPC1A, CYP3A43, RELN, IAMBI, IMMP2L and DOCK4 in this case. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V.
