Maternal uniparental heterodisomy of chromosome 14: chromosomal mechanism and clinical follow up.
To our knowledge, 22 cases of chromosome 14 maternal uniparental disomy (UPD(14)mat) have been reported so far. The majority of cases were ascertained because of an abnormal phenotype associated with a Robertsonian translocation involving chromosome 14. We report here on a child with UPD(14)mat detected prenatally and resulting from trisomy rescue in a maternal meiosis I non-disjunction trisomi...

متن کاملInfantile nephropathic cystinosis.
INTRODUCTION Infantile nephropathic cystinosis (INC) is a metabolic disorder due to impaired carrier-mediated transport of cystine out of cellular lysosomes. OBJECTIVE To examine the prevalence and clinical characteristics of INC in paediatric patients with endstage renal disease (ESRD) in Serbia and give a recent statement of the disease. METHODS ESRD database of the Centre for Paediatric ...
متن کاملCorneal thickness in nephropathic cystinosis.
Cystinosis is a rare autosomal recessive metabolic disorder in which non-protein cystine accumulates within cellular lysosomes owing to a defect in lysosomal cystine transport. The pathognomonic ocular manifestation of cystinosis is the deposition of distinctive iridescent crystals in the cornea, not associated with any inflammatory response or recognised change in corneal function. We measured...
متن کاملVentricular noncompaction in a female patient with nephropathic cystinosis: a case report
INTRODUCTION We report an unusual and interesting case of a 24-year-old woman with nephropathic cystinosis in association with concomitant isolated noncompaction of the left ventricle. Left ventricular noncompaction usually presents with reduced exercise tolerance as a consequence of ventricular dysfunction, the result of embolus or with palpitations and syncope due to arrhythmia. There is no s...
