چکیده

A description is given of a female infant with multiple malformations and mental retardation who died at 31 months. Cytogenetic studies indicate trisomy of the complete short arm of chromosome 5, resulting from the unbalanced segregation of a balanced translocation in the mother whose karyotype was interpreted as 46,XX,t(5; 15)(p11; p12). The karyotype of the proband was designated 46,XX, der(5)t(5; 15)(p11; p12)mat. Family studies indicate that the translocation has been present in the family for at least 6 generations.

Partial trisomy for short and long arm of chromosome no. 5: Two cases of two possible syndromes.

We report 2 patients from different families with malformation-retardation syndromes caused by a partial trisomy of the long and of the short arm of chromosome 5, respectively (case 1: 46,XX,der(3),t(3;5)(p27;p13)mat; case 2: 46,XY,der(22),t(5;22)(q33;q13)pat). Several members of these families were balanced translocation carriers. Our cases are compared with those cited in the literature. The ...

At least nine cases of trisomy 11q23-->qter in one generation as a result of familial t(11;13) translocation.

Carriers of balanced reciprocal translocations may have a (high) risk for producing liveborn children with an unbalanced karyotype. We report a large family in which a translocation between the long arm of chromosome 11 and the short arm of chromosome 13 is segregating in at least five generations. During the course of our study 15 carriers of the balanced translocation were identified and nine...

Severe mental retardation in six generations of a large South African family carrying a translocation t(6;10)(q27;q25.2).

Partial monosomy 10q25.2----qter, detected in a newborn baby with multiple congenital abnormalities, was found to be derived from a balanced maternal translocation t(6;10)(q27;q25.2). The pedigree of six generations of the family is presented. In an extensive cytogenetic study of this family, the chromosome complements of 57 subjects, potentially capable of carrying some form of this translocat...

The Survey of Double Robertsonian Translocation 13q; 14q in the Pedigree of 44; XX Woman: A Case Report

Robertsonian translocations (RBT) are associated with an increased risk of aneuploidy. Single RBT carriers are the most common balanced rearrangement among the carrier couples with the history of spontaneous abortion. However, double Robertsonian translocations (DRBT), in which two balanced RBT occur simultaneously, are an extremely rare condition. A 9-year-old mentally normal girl with mu...
