INTRODUCTION: Terminal deletion of chromosome 6q is a rare chromosomal abnormality associated with intellectual disabilities and various structural brain abnormalities. We present a case of 6q terminal deletion syndrome with unusual magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in a neonate.
CASE PRESENTATION: The neonate, who was prenatally diagnosed with dilation of both lateral ventricles, was born at 38 weeks of gestation. MRI demonstrated abnormal membranous structure continuing to the hypertrophic massa intermedia in the third ventricle that had obscured the cerebrospinal fluid pathway, causing hydrocephalus. G-band analysis revealed a terminal deletion of 6q with the karyotype 46, XY, add(6)(q25.3) or del(6)(q26). He underwent ventriculoperitoneal shunt successfully, and his head circumference has been stable.
DISCUSSION/CONCLUSION: 6q terminal deletion impacts the molecular pathway, which is an essential intracellular signaling cascade inducing neurological proliferation, migration, and differentiation during neuronal development. In patients with hydrocephalus in association with hypertrophy of the massa intermedia, this chromosomal abnormality should be taken into consideration. This case may offer an insight into the pathogenesis of hydrocephalus in this rare chromosomal abnormality.
