Abstract
DiGeorge syndrome is caused by a small deletion in chromosome 22
Multiplex PCR with oligonucleotide probe ligation is a gold standard method for diagnosis of DiGeorge syndrome
Leukopenia, low CD3+ cells count, low serum calcium, arterial trunk and ventricular septal defect, and hypoplasia of the thymus should direct toward a diagnosis of DiGeorge syndrome
