Abstract
In this paper, the authors present the case of a 24-year-old female with ring 15 chromosome syndrome. Upon examination, the patient presented with severe mental retardation, dwarfism and microcephaly, along with other minor dysmorphic stigmata. We compared this case with three other adult female cases with this chromosomal aberration. As a result, the authors observed a somewhat dysharmonious profile between the level of mental retardation and behavioural findings in the four women, while sexual development and gonadal function seemed to be normal in all four cases.
