Interstitial deletions of 16q24.1–q24.2 are associated with alveolar capillary dysplasia, congenital renal malformations, neurodevelopmental disorders, and congenital abnormalities. Lymphedema–Distichiasis syndrome (LDS; OMIM # 153400) is a dominant condition caused by heterozygous pathogenic variants in  FOXC2 . Usually, lymphedema and distichiasis occur in puberty or later on, and affected individuals typically achieve normal developmental milestones. Here, we describe a boy with congenital lymphedema, distichiasis, bilateral hydronephrosis, and global developmental delay, with a de novo microdeletion of 894 kb at 16q24.1–q24.2. This report extends the phenotype of both 16q24.1–q24.2 microdeletion syndrome and of LDS. Interestingly, the deletion involves only the 3′‐UTR part of  FOXC2 .
