Background: Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome, a well-known contiguous microdeletion syndrome, is caused by deletions on chromosome 4p. While the clinical symptoms and the critical region for this disorder have been identified based on genotype-phenotype correlations, duplications in this region have been infrequently reported.Conclusion: Our case report shows that both deletions and duplications of the Wolf-Hirshhorn critical region cause intellectual disability/developmental delay and multiple congenital anomalies.

Joubert syndrome (JS) and JS-related disorders are a group of developmental delay, multiple congenital anomalies and complex midbrain–hindbrain malformations. A few cases of JS with multiple pituitary hormone deficiency (MPHD) have been reported in literature. Here, we presented an unusual presentation of JS in a newborn with MPHD. This case is intended to draw attention to the rare association of JS and MDPH by increasing the awareness of this syndrome.
