Prenatal Diagnosis of Triploidy in Fetus with Unexpected Chromosomal Translocation of Maternal Origin
Triploidy is a lethal chromosomal abnormality. Foetuses with triploid condition have a tendency to die in early conception and very few survive to term. In this study, we report the prenatal diagnosis of fetal triploidy with unexpected chromosomal translocation. A 27 years old women was referred to our clinical cytogenetic department due to history of previous conceptus with intrauterine growth...
متن کاملprenatal diagnosis of chronic granulomatous disease in a male fetus
mutations in any of four known nadph-oxidase components lead to cgd. x-linked cgd (x-cgd) is caused by defects in cybb, the gene that encodes gp91-phox. autosomal recessive (ar) cgd is caused by defects in the genes for p47 phox, p22-phox or p67-phox. the aim of this study was to screen the molecular defect in the fetus of an x-cgd carrier mother and postnatal confirmation of the results. in a ...
متن کاملFortuitous detection of uniparental isodisomy of chromosome 6.
Uniparental isodisomy is defined as the inheritance of two copies of the same parental chromosome and can result in defects when it produces homozygosity for a recessive mutation or in the presence of imprinting. We describe the detection of a chromosome 6 uniparental isodisomy in a 9 year old girl, discovered during a search for an HLA identical sib. HLA typing, erythrocyte phenotyping, and ge...
متن کاملUnusual Stüve-Wiedemann syndrome with complete maternal chromosome 5 isodisomy
A woman was isozygous for a novel mutation in the leukemia inhibitory factor receptor gene (LIFR) (c.2170C>G; p.Pro724Ala) which disrupts LIFR downstream signaling and results in Stüve-Wiedemann syndrome (STWS). She inherited two identical chromosomes 5 from her mother, heterozygous for the LIFR mutation. The presentation was typical for STWS, except there was no long bone dysplasia. Prominent ...
متن کاملPrenatal Diagnosis of a Fetus with Congenital Heart Defect and Ring Chromosome 14
Monosomy of chromosome 14 has been reported in only a few prenatal cases. Generally, this monosomy is associated with a mosaicism of ring chromosome 14. Ring chromosome 14 is a rare cytogenetic entity with clinical characteristics that include growth retardation, facial dysmorphia, hypotonia, seizures, and retinitis pigmentosa. Given that the majority of symptoms appear postnatally, few cases h...
