Moche is a culture that developed between 200 y 850 AD in the Peruvian northern coast. Their pottery artefacts were crafted showing many details, they were very realistic, and different physical malformations have been identified in these pieces. We present the case of the piece C-00122 that is kept in the Natural and Cultural History Museum of Universidad Privada Antenor Orrego (NCHM-UPAO), which shows a skeletal disorder associated to some facial malformations. We discuss the case and propose different likely diagnoses.

Objective: to establish the ratios of the copy number variations and regions of homozygosity through chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) in children with neurodevelopmental disorders: development delay (DD), intellectual disability (ID), and/or autistic spectrum disorder (ASD), malformative syndrome (MS) and idiopathic short stature (ISS). Materials and methods: we evaluated 367 Peruvian children diagnosed clinically with ID, DD, ASD, ISS and MS to whom performed chromosomal microarray analysis in peripheral blood (750K CGH + SNP), between the years 2016-2018. Results: patients' age fluctuated between 4.8 months and 18 years old, with an average of 5.6 years old. The most frequent diagnoses were development delay (48%) and intellectual disability (30%). Abnormal results (pathogenic variants, likely pathogenic variants, uniparental disomies and loss of heterozygosity> 2.5%) were repo...
