Abstract Three patients with partial monosomy of the long arm of chromosome 21 are reported. Each one presents several features of a 21q—syndrome but in cases 2 and 3, other chromosomes are involved, contributing to the variability of the clinical picture. Synthesis of clinical, enzymatic and cytogenetic findings confirms that the superoxide dismutase A (SOD-A) locus is in sub-band 21q22-1. However, it is not possible to localize precisely the segments responsible for the different clinical features of 21q — syndrome.
