ResumenBackground: The chromosomal microdeletion syndrome 2q13 is characterized by craniofacial dysmorphism, developmental delay, intellectual disability, autism spectrum disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, cardiac abnormalities, and seizures. Case Presentation: In this study, we present a descriptive genomic observation of a teenage boy presenting with epilepsy, intellectual disability, and mild facial dysmorphism, found to carry a 48.55 kb 2q13 microdeletion restricted to the BUB1 locus alongside a concurrent 11q21 microdeletion. While his clinical features overlap with the 2q13 microdeletion spectrum, the exact pathogenic contribution of each variant remains a subject of hypothesis due to the lack of parental inheritance data. Conclusions: Further research is necessary to ascertain the impact of the concurrence of small deletions on these disorders. This case underscores the clinical complexity introduced by compound minor copy number variations and emphasizes the value of molecular cytogenetics in evaluating idiopathic neurodevelopmental disorders.es_ES
