a rare de novo balanced x; 1 translocation in an indian female with primary amenorrhea

Authors
abstract

background: translocations involving x chromosome and an autosome are rather rare due to associated infertility in men and subfertility in women. x chromosome translocations are frequently associated with primary or secondary amenorrhea. in this report, a case of primary amenorrhea with a de novo balanced reciprocal translocation was presented between chromosomes x and 1. case presentation: a 24 year-old proposita with the complaint of primary amenorrhea was found to have hypoplastic uterus and streak gonads with a normal hormonal profile. chromosomal analysis of the proband revealed a de novo translocation of 46, x, t(x; 1) (q21; p32) chromosomal constitution. parental karyotypes of the proband showed normal karyotype. conclusion: the observed translocation between chromosome x and 1 in the patient suggest either the disruption of a critical gene expression due to position effect or deletion of one or more essential genes in the disrupted long arm of the affected x chromosome. to the best of our knowledge, this is the first report from our ethnic group.

Balanced Reciprocal Translocation t(X;1) in a Girl with Tall Stature and Primary Amenorrhea

AbstractChromosomal translocations constitute one of the most important, yet uncommon, causes of primary amenorrhea and gonadal dysgenesis. Although X-autosome translocations are frequently associated with streak gonads and clinical features of the Turner syndrome, the majority of X-autosome carriers may present with a variable phenotype, developmental delay, and recognizable X-linked syndrome ...
