Partial trisomy 16 as a result of familial 16;20 translocation.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Although trisomy 16 is well recognised in spontaneous abortuses, it is infrequent in livebirths and there is little information about the clinical effects. We report two sibs with partial trisomy 16q resulting in infant death. Both children were severely growth retarded with small elfin faces, prominent foreheads, low set ears, abnormal external genitalia, and intractable diarrhoea.

RECONSIDERATION OF THE CAT EYE SYNDROME: RECIPROCAL TRANSLOCATION T(1l,22) LEADING TO PARTIAL TRISOMY OF llq AND 22.
We are reporting a case of 47 chromosome complement with an extra rearranged chromosome 22pter→22qll:: llq23 → llqter in a child with multiple malformations whose mother has a balanced reciprocal translocation t(1l,22) with a history of two previous abortions. We emphasize the importance of family study in such cases.
متن کاملPartial trisomy 7p associated with familial 7p;22q translocation.
A newly described partial trisomy of the short arm of chromosome number 7 is reported in a familial translocation between 7 and 22. The unbalanced translocation was found in one family member, the propositus, and the balanced form in 5 other members. The possibility of this translocation being a rare telomeric attachment previously undescribed in humans is discussed. Prominent clinical features...
متن کاملEndocrine abnormalities in a patient with partial trisomy 4q.
Partial trisomy of the long arm of chromosome 4, usually resulting from a familial segregation of a balanced translocation, has been described in a number of patients. This report describes the genetic and endocrine findings in a 16 year old 46,XY,12q+ mentally retarded male. The banding pattern of the extra chromatin material from this de novo unbalanced translocation shows that the distal seg...
متن کاملAt 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...
متن کاملTrisomy 16p in a liveborn infant and a review of partial and full trisomy 16.
An abnormal female infant, who survived for 10 months with almost complete trisomy 16p and monosomy of sub-band 21q22.3, is described. The chromosome anomaly was the result of an unbalanced segregation of a maternal balanced translocation t(16;21)(p11;q22.3). The partial monosomy was considered to have had little or no adverse phenotypic effect. Cases with trisomy of chromosome 16 material are ...
