Four children diagnosed with KBG syndrome due to 16q24.3 microdeletion at Children's Hospital of Zhengzhou University from July 2021 to April 2024 were enrolled.Their clinical manifestations, biochemical parameters, imaging data, whole-exome sequencing results, treatments and follow-up outcomes were reviewed. <b>Results:</b> The cohort included two males and two females (diagnosed at 81, 18, 26, and 56 months of age, respectively), from four unrelated families. All patients exhibited peculiar facial features (Cupid's bowed-shaped lips, prominent ears, thick eyebrows), skeletal abnormalities (brachydactyly, abnormal ribs, short stature, etc.), ocular anomalies (astigmatism, strabismus, amblyopia, etc.), intrauterine growth restriction, and developmental retardation. Case 2, 3, 4 had cranial imaging abnormalities, including thin anterior pituitary lobes with pineal cyst, left ventricular cyst, and abnormal pituitary stalk or lateral ventricles with sinusitis, respectively. Two children had intellectual disability, two had congenital heart disease, and one had delayed bone age and hair abnormalities.
