RESUMO

A boy with typical tetramelic split hands and feet is described. In addition, there was a large arteriovenous malformation of the right arm. Chromosome studies showed a pericentric inversion of chromosome 7: 46,XY,inv(7)(p22q21.3). Inspection of the extremities and chromosome studies in the parents were normal. This case confirms the suggested localisation of a locus, important for early limb differentiation, on the long arm of chromosome 7, most probably in the chromosomal region 7q21.2-7q21.3. Previously reported cases are reviewed briefly.
