Scope note: Síndrome congénito caracterizado por diversas malformaciones entre las que se incluyen la ausencia de TIMO y GLÁNDULAS PARATIROIDES que causa inmunodeficiencia de las células T e HIPOCALCEMIA. Además, pueden existir defectos conotruncales del CORAZÓN y anomalías craneofaciales (síndrome velocardiofacial). La mayoría de los casos se deben a ausencia de una pequeña porción del cromosoma 22 (22q11.2) o una mutación en el gen TBX1.
