Complex chromosomal rearrangement leading to partial trisomy 22.

Complex chromosomal rearrangement leading to partial trisomy 22.

We have examined a boy with a peculiar facial appearance and mental retardation. Cytogenetic studies showed 47,XY, monosomy 22, two marker chromosomes, M1 and M2. The karotype is interpreted as functionally partial trisomy 22. Chromosome analyses of both parents and three sibs were normal.

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.

Partial trisomy 22 in a liveborn resulting from a rearrangement between chromosomes 6 and 22.

Partial trisomy 6p and partial trisomy 22 resulting from 3:1 meiotic disjunction of maternal (6p;22q) translocation.

A male infant, partially trisomic for a small segment of chromosomes 6 and 22 resulting from a maternal translocation, is described. Comparison of the phenotypic features of the proband with those noted in partial 6p and partial 22 trisomies revealed some common features found in both chromosome anomalies but especially reinforced those features thought to be characteristic of 6p trisomy syndrome.
