Chromosome 10p13-14 and 22q11 deletion screening in 100 patients with isolated and syndromic conotruncal heart defects.
Heart defects are among the most common congenital anomalies, occurring in approximately 1% of newborn populations. Conotruncal heart defects (CTHD), which account for 50-60% of all congenital heart malformations, are known to have a strong genetic component. They occur either as an isolated malformation or in association with extracardiac anomalies. In particular, CTHD constitute a cardinal co...
متن کاملGuidelines for 22q11 deletion screening of patients with conotruncal defects.
Goldmuntz et al. (1) have reported the frequency of 22q11 deletions in a prospectively ascertained sample of 251 patients with conotruncal defects. Deletions were found in 17.9% of the patients, including 50% with interrupted aortic arch (IAA), 34.3% with truncus arteriosus (TA), and 15.9% with tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). Although this study was designed to determine the frequency of deletions i...
متن کاملFrequency of 22q11 deletions in patients with conotruncal defects.
OBJECTIVES This study was designed to determine the frequency of 22q11 deletions in a large, prospectively ascertained sample of patients with conotruncal defects and to evaluate the deletion frequency when additional cardiac findings are also considered. BACKGROUND Chromosome 22q11 deletions are present in the majority of patients with DiGeorge, velocardiofacial and conotruncal anomaly face ...
متن کاملDetection of chromosomal abnormalities and the 22q11 microdeletion in fetuses with congenital heart defects.
Chromosomal abnormalities and the 22q11 microdeletion are implicated in congenital heart defects (CHDs). This study was designed to detect these abnormalities in fetuses and determine the effect of genetic factors on CHD etiology. Between January 2010 and December 2011, 113 fetuses with CHD treated at the Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital were investigated, using chromosome karyotyping...
متن کاملMicrodeletion 22q11 and oesophageal atresia.
Oesophageal atresia (OA) is a congenital defect associated with additional malformations in 30-70% of the cases. In particular, OA is a component of the VACTERL association. Since some major features of the VACTERL association, including conotruncal heart defect, radial aplasia, and anal atresia, have been found in patients with microdeletion 22q11.2 (del(22q11.2)), we have screened for del(22q...
