Abstract
A terminal deletion of chromosome 3 at p25.3 was observed during prenatal diagnosis. A similar deletion is also present in the phenotypically normal mother. The deletion was confirmed by FISH. The breakpoint is distal to the region responsible for the 3p- syndrome. A normal baby girl was born with no apparent phenotypic abnormalities.
