Summary
Two unrelated cases of single maxillary central incisor (SMCI) with 7q terminal deletion of the same breakpoint at 7q36.1 were described. They had mental retardation, microcephaly, hypotelorism, short stature, and normal levels of plasma growth hormone. One case had bilateral caudal ectopic kidneys, double renal pelves, and dilated ureters. The other had bilateral hydroureteronephrosis. The present cases suggest that 7 q terminal deletion is one of the causes of SMCI.
