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.

To the Editor.— Kaler et al (Pediatrics 1987;79:434-436) provided a case report of hypertrichosis and multiple congenital anomalies with maternal minoxidil use. Reports such as this contribute to alerting national drug safety offices of possible teratologic questions. Maternal drug exposure data, since 1979 when minoxidil was marketed, is available to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) from 73,000 pregnancies (15,600 birth defects, 4,400 spontaneous abortions, and 53,000 normal outcomes). This yields, in addition to the report by Kaler et al, only two other births with maternal minoxidil exposures:

The cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome is a condition of sporadic occurrence, with patients showing multiple congenital anomalies and mental retardation. The syndrome is caused by molecular disturbances in the RAS/MAPK pathway. We report on the girl, 9 year-old, with the cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome presenting with typical craniofacial appearance, heart defects, ectodermal abnormalities, neglected orthopedic pathology, developmental delay and spasticity, which rare in this syndrome.

De Novo Duplication of Chromosome 7 (q21.1-q32); Case Report and Review of the LiteratureCytogenetic analysis of a 1-year-old boy with multiple congenital anomalies revealed partial duplication of the chromosome 7q21.2-q32 band region. His main features included: frontal bossing, small jaw, low-set ears, deep-set eyes, strabismus, drooping left upper eyelid, widely-spaced eyes, short nose, long philtrum, down-curved upper lip, camptodactyly and hypotonia.

Background: Malformations related to the gallbladder are uncommon, with an incidence lower than 0,1%. The majority of them are asymptomatic, however when symptoms appear are non-specific with a similar presentation to biliary colic. Methods: We report a case of a 29-year-old woman with persistent upper right abdominal pain and no visualization of the gallbladder in the ultrasound (US), CT scan or in the magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP). Results: A laparoscopic exploration was performed due to persistent abdominal pain which confirmed an hypoplasic gallbladder. After cholecystectomy, symptoms were relieved. Herein we propose a decisional algorithm when suspecting a gallbladder with agenesis or hypoplasia. Conclusion: Surgeons need to take into consideration congenital anomalies of the gallbladder. Performing imaging techniques is important in order not to misdiagnose hypoplasia.
