We describe a one-year old girl, with a de novo segmental aneusomy due to the subtelomeric deletion of the long arm of chromosome 9, determined via fluorescence in situ hybridization technique. Common clinical findings of the 9q subtelomeric deletion syndrome are developmental delay, hypotonia, microcephaly and dysmorphic facial features especially including midface hypoplasia and low set ears.
