Chromosome 15q25.2 microdeletion is a chromosome abnormality that can affect many parts of the body. People with this condition are missing a small piece (deletion) of chromosome 15 at a location designated q25.2. The signs and symptoms vary but usually include mild to moderate intellectual disability and developmental delay. Some people may also have poor growth, anemia and/or physical abnormalities. Most cases are not inherited, although affected individuals can pass the deletion on to their children. Treatment is based on the signs and symptoms present in each person.[7815][7816][7817]
