Pure partial duplications of the long arm of chromosome 16 are rare and few cases are described with delineation by chromosomal microarray. Data about clinical abnormalities of pure partial 16q duplications are incomplete because many individuals die during the perinatal period. We describe the clinical features of a 47-month-old Brazilian girl with 16q21q24.1 duplication. To the best of our knowledge, she is the first person with this specific chromosome segment duplication, and we compare her phenotype with the only reported individual alive with intermediate–distal pure 16q duplication.
