Subsequently, several other patients purported to have the condition were reported. The condition became known as the Hunter-McAlpine syndrome, and there was debate as to whether or not it was identical to the Ruvalcaba syndrome or a type of tricho-rhino-phalangeal syndrome. In this article we confirm that the original family and a patient reported by Ades et al. Clin Dysmorphol 1993: 2 (2): 123-130 have cryptic translocations resulting in duplication of 5q35-qter. Similarities are noted between our patients and others in the literature with duplication of this chromosome segment.
