Partial trisomy 11p with interatrial septal aneurysm. Case report and literature review

A newborn female infant presented with hypotonia, joint hyperextensibility, cardiac murmur, macroglossia, and hepatosplenomegaly. Karyotype of the child revealed partial trisomy of chromosome 11p derived from a paternal balanced translocation. Echocardiogram obtained in the newborn period suggested interatrial aneurysm, which was confirmed on post-mortem examination. Interatrial septal aneurysm is a rare abnormality not previously described in partial trisomy 11p.
