Potocki–Schaffer syndrome is a contiguous gene syndrome associated with deletions in 11p11.2, principal features of which are multiple exostoses, parietal foramina development delay, mental retardation, and facial dysmorphism. In some cases, males may have enlarged anterior fontanels and genital abnormalities. Each of these syndromes is very rare. Here we report a patient with both WAGR and Potocki–Shaffer syndromes who presented with aniridia, nystagmus, macular dysplasia, enlarged anterior fontanel, mental retardation, ptosis, low-set ears, micrognathia, and atrial septal defect at 6 months old. SNP array revealed a large (26.25 Mb)deletion: arr[hg19]11p15.1p11.2(18742043–44991839)× 1. Genetic testing allowed for diagnosis of this patient at a very young age. In addition to the postnatal phenotype of the patient, we found one prenatal symptom of these syndromes is oligohydramnios, which when present might indicate advanced prenatal diagnosis. This made the possibility of prenatal diagnosis for these syndromes. SN - 1601-5223 UR - https://doi.org/10.1186/s41065-020-00132-2 DO - 10.1186/s41065-020-00132-2 ID - Meng2020 ER -
