This case report shows a three‐generation family with hereditary thrombocytopenia and oligodontia with a heterozygous 290 kb novel contiguous gene deletion in band p13.2 of chromosome 12, encompassing LRP6 and ETV6. In this report we discuss the clinical relevance of the deletion of both genes and illustrate the importance of thorough examination of oligodontia patients. Here, ETV6 is linked to Oligodontia.
