Severe Silver‐Russell syndrome and translocation (17;20) (q25;q13)

Abstract
An 8-year-8-month-old girl with Silver-Russell syndrome (SRS) and a paternally inherited balanced t(17;20)(q25;q13) is described. This observation suggests that an SRS gene(s) maps on chromosome 17 or 20 and that the patient phenotype resulted from either unmasking of heterozygosity or genomic imprinting via paternal disomy.
