A Dysmorphic Child with a Pericentric Inversion of Chromosome 8
نویسندگان
چکیده
An 8-year-old boy was referred to our institute with dysmorphic features such as mild lupus, micrognathia, low hair line, hypoplasia, hemi atrophy of left side of the face, abnormal size of ears, hypothenar, hypoplasia of chin, and tongue tie. MRI scan was found to be normal and EEG suggestive of generalized seizure disorder. Cytogenetic evaluation of the proband revealed a pericentric inversion of chromosome 8 with 46, XY, and inv 8 (p11.2; q21.2) karyotype.

Goldenhar Syndrome and Pericentric Inversion of Chromosome 9
Oculo-auriculovertebral dysplasia (Goldenhar) is a congenital syndrome. Its phenotype differs from craniofacial anomalies to cardiac, vertebral or central nervous system defects. This syndrome is rare and its etiology is not apparent yet. Pericentric inversion of chromosome 9 is one of the most common structural balanced chromosomal aberrations with its incidences 15% to 25%. Herein we present ...
متن کاملA child with a recombinant of chromosome 8 inherited from her carrier mother.
A female child with mental retardation and dysmorphic features was found to have a duplication deficiency of chromosome 8: rec(8)dup q,inv(8)(p23q24), a recombinant product derived from a familial pericentric inversion, inv(8)(p23q24)mat. Clinical features of this previously undescribed inversion product are compared with other reported cases of partial trisomy for the distal long arm of chromo...
متن کاملA malformed child with a recombinant chromosome 7, rec(7) dup p, derived from a maternal pericentric inversion inv(7)(p15q36).
We report a child with facial dysmorphic features, hypoplasia of the external genitalia, intestinal malrotation, congenital cardiac defect, and minor limb anomalies. Chromosome studies showed a recombinant chromosome 7, rec(7) dup p, resulting from a maternal pericentric inversion inv(7)(p15 q36). Thus, this child had partial trisomy 7p in addition to a small distal monosomy 7. The clinical fin...
متن کاملPrenatal Diagnosis in Pericentric Inversion 6
A four-year-old girl, the proband along with her mother in her subsequent pregnancy was referred to the genetic clinic for evaluation of global developmental delay with a normal karyotype study. On evaluation, dysmorphic features prompted to repeat the karyotype assessment. An unbalanced pericentric inversion of chromosome 6 in the index child was noticed. This was followed by identification of...
متن کاملMosaicism for duplication 12q (12q13-->12q21.2) accompanied by a pericentric inversion in a dysmorphic female infant.
While several case reports describe partial trisomy 12qter, reports of interstitial 12q duplications are extremely rare. We present here the clinical findings in a female infant with mosaicism for a duplication of chromosome 12q13.3→12q21.2 accompanied by a pericentric inversion (12)(p13.3q21.2). No other cases with an interstitial duplication for this region have been reported. The female infa...
