Introduction: Most chromosome 3 deletions are associated with neuro-developmental and eye abnormalities. Here, we report a rare and unusual multiple congenital abnormality, including ano-rectal malformation, in conjunction with chromosome 3q29 segment deletion, which has not previously been reported.
Case presentation: A three-month-old female Jordanian baby presented with an absent anus and corneal opacities and was referred for further management after a diverting colostomy operation at the age of one day.
Conclusion: Chromosome 3q29 deletion is associated with additional abnormalities to neurological ones, such as ano-rectal malformations. We need to investigate a patient fully to find such hidden clinical features.
