ch 22 deletion; 3rd and 4th pharyngeal pouches fail to diffferentiate .. (3rd ph pouch---inf parathyroids and thymus) (4th ph pouch---sup parathyroids and ultimobranchial body) Cardiac defects---due to abnormal migration of neural crest cells to form AP septum(conotruncal defects) Abnormal facies--micrognathia, low set ears, hypertelorism Thymic aplasia--T cell deficiency----repeated infections Cleft palate Hypocalcemia---tetany (CATCH-22)
