8p23.1 duplication syndrome is a rare genetic disorder caused by a duplication of a region from human chromosome 8.[1] This duplication syndrome has an estimated prevalence of 1 in 64,000 births[1] and is the reciprocal of the 8p23.1 deletion syndrome. The 8p23.1 duplication is associated with a variable phenotype including one or more of speech delay, developmental delay, mild dysmorphism, with prominent forehead and arched eyebrows, and congenital heart disease (CHD).[2][3]
