Abstract
We report on two patients with Wolf-Hirschhorn-syndrome. They showed c haracteristic clinical features including microcephaly, hypertelorism, cleft palate, cardiac and renal defects, hypospadia and developmental retardation. Diskussion: They represent an example of the variability of clinical symptoms seen in Hirschhorn-syndrome. In patients the dia gnosis was con firmed by conventional cytogenetic methods.
