چکیده

A female patient with a 46,XX,del(8)(p23----pter) karyotype is presented. She was mentally retarded and showed a few dysmorphic features. Her red cell glutathione reductase level was within normal limits. This terminal deletion, on the short arm of chromosome 8, appears to be the smallest segment hitherto reported.

Partial monosomy 8p and trisomy 16q in two children with developmental delay detected by array comparative genomic hybridization

Two cases of liveborn unrelated children with developmental delay and overlapping unbalanced translocations der(8)t(8;16)(p23.2;q23.3) and der (8)t(8;16)(p23.1;q23.1), leading to partial monosomy 8p and partial trisomy 16q, are reported in the present study. The first patient was a 10‑year‑old boy with mild developmental delay and minor congenital anomalies (borderline microcephaly, clinodactyl...

The clinical phenotype of the derivative (8)t(7;8)(q22;p23.3) in two siblings

Trisomy 7q or 7q duplication has been described with specific craniofacial dysmorphic features and clinical manifestations, since the chromosomal abnormality was first described by Vogel et al. in 1973 1, 2) . But, trisomy 7p syndrome rarely originates de novo; it usually results from a parental balanced translocation, which alters the phenotype attributable to trisomy7q. Here we report on two ...

Two cases of partial trisomy 8p and partial monosomy 21q in a family with a reciprocal translocation (8;21)(p21.1;q22.3).

We report on two mentally retarded adults with an unbalanced karyotype resulting from a familial balanced translocation between chromosomes 8 and 21, t(8;21)(p21.1;q22.3). This translocation has not been reported before. Both patients had partial trisomy 8p and partial monosomy 21q. Fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) was used to determine the chromosomal breakpoints more precisely. The f...

Duplication 2p and monosomy 8p in mosaicism: clinical, molecular cytogenetic and molecular markers of a unique case.

We report on a female patient, with a de novo mosaicism for a structural rearrangement producing trisomy 2p21-->pter and monosomy 8p21-pter. GTG bands and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) in lymphocytes identified: mos 46,XX,der(8)(8qter-->8p21::p21::2p21-->pter),9qh +[52]/ 46,XX,9qh+[82]. Fibroblasts showed the same cell lines in 15 and 12 cells respectively. DNA profiling with fourte...

De novo case of a partial trisomy 4p and a partial monosomy 8p.

The extent of clinical expression in cases of segmental aneuploidy often varies depending on the size of the chromosomal region involved. Here we present clinical and cytogenetic findings in a 5-month old boy with a duplication of a chromosomal segment 4p16.1-->4pter and a deletion of a chromosomal segment 8p23.1-->8pter. His karyotype was determined by applying classical GTG banding and FISH m...
