22q, more specifically known as 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome.
22q is a genetic syndrome. It is the result of a submicroscopic deletion on the long arm of Chromosome 22 in the “q11” region - deletion 22q11.
​
It is estimated that it affects roughly 1 in 1000 live births, making it almost as common as Down Syndrome.
