Jacobsen syndrome (JS) is an 11q terminal deletion disorder. Affected individuals have developmental delay, cognitive impairment, heart defects, hypertelorism, broad nasal bridge, and a thin upper lip. Most patients with JS have Paris-Trousseau syndrome (PTS), which is characterized by neonatal thrombocytopenia and persistent platelet dysfunction due to 11q terminal deletion including FLI-I gene causing platelet alpha-granule abnormalities.1

Jacobsen syndrome (JS) is a rare combined immunodeficiency caused by partial deletion of the long arm of chromosome 11. Clinical features include physical growth retardation, psychomotor retardation, characteristic facial dysmorphism (skull deformities, hypertelorism, ptosis, coloboma, epicanthal folds, broad nasal bridge, short nose, v-shaped mouth, small low set ears). Patients commonly have malformations of the heart, kidney, gastrointestinal tract, genitalia, central nervous system and skeleton. Abnormal platelet function and immunological problems are usually present. Here we describe a patient with deletion of 11(q) chromosome resulting in clinical phenotype of the facial dysmorphisms, congenital malformations, neurological symptoms, as well as clinical and laboratory features of immunodeficiency. Features of immune dysregulation in a patient with JS are clearly characterized. Patient's parents agreed to use personal dats and photos in research and publications.

Two fourth cousins with a strikingly similar pattern of malformation and who have an unbalanced translocation (46, XY, —17, +t (17p; lOq) are described. From an analysis of the phenotypes of these patients and others reported with lOq trisomy, we propose that the trisomy 1Oq 24-26 syndrome includes: growth and mental retardation, a characteristic facies (microcephaly, flat face with spacious forehead, small nose, depressed nasal bridge, arched wide-spaced eyebrows, blepharophimosis, microphthamia, low-set ears, bow-shaped mouth with prominent upper lip, micrognathia), palate anomalies (high-arched cleft or agenesis), congenital heart disease, and anomalies of the hands and feet. Anomalies common to the cousins, but not described in other patients with trisomy 1Oq, are believed to be expressions of a partial monosomy of 17p.

The Circles of Prominence, A New Theory on Beauty: Ideal Distances in the Eyes, Nose, Ears and Lips. The Circles of Prominence (COP) theorizes that the width of the iris serves as an ideal for multiple distances and shapes within the face. We wanted to test if the iris width (IW) dictates: 1.) the aesthetic ideal distance between eyelid margin and bottom of the eyebrow; 2.) the aesthetic ideal width of the nasal bridge and tip; 3.) the aesthetic ideal height of the upper lip; 4.) the aesthetic ideal height of the lower lip; 5.) and the aesthetic ideal distance the ear extends from the side of the face. This was a subjective survey to test these distances to find the ideal. The data supports that the ideal distance for eyebrow height, nasal bridge & tip width, and lower lip height are all 1 IW as predicted by the COP. The ideal height of the upper lip was statistically found to be ½ IW. The ideal distance that the ear extends from the side of the face was split between ½ IW and 1. As predicted, the data supports the idea that the Iris width serves as the ideal distance or shape for many elements in the face.

AbstractStudy advances with a childhood case of partial deletion of the long arm of chromosome 7. The patient is a 36-month-old girl with growth retardation, mild mental retardation and delayed bone age. She showed no signs of hypotelorism, upslanting palpebral fissures, epicanthal folds, low-set ears, or flat and broad nasal bridge. Microarray testing using the Affymetrix CytoScan HD array revealed an approximately 58 kb deletion at 7q31.1 in the girl and her father, suggesting paternal origin. As the patient had no characteristic facial features, 7q deletions had not been considered. This case broadens the range of case presentations for microdeletions of chromosome 7.
