چکیده

Apparent deletion of the short arms of one X chromosome associated with clinically detectable abnormalities, has been reported (Jacobs, Harnden, Court Brown, Goldstein, Close, MacGregor, Maclean, and Strong, I960; Jacobs, Harnden, Buckton, Court Brown, King, McBride, MacGregor, and Maclean, I96I; de Grouchy, Lamy, Yaneva, Salomon, and Netter, I96I; London, Kemp, Ellis, and Mittwoch, I964). However, the number of similar recorded cases is limited. The present report concerns an 8-year-old girl in whom chromosomal analysis, combined with radioautography, indicated a possible deletion of the short arms in one X chromosome.

The common causes of 18p deletion syndrome are spontaneous errors in the chromosomal structure in the early stages of human embryonic development. In this study, a 29-year-old girl was introduced with the features of deletion of chromosome 18. In addition, GTG banding karyotype revealed that this case had a deletion involving the short arm of chromosome 18. In comparison with the usual phenotyp...

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 ...

Goldenhar Syndrome and Pericentric Inversion of Chromosome 9

Oculo-auriculovertebral dysplasia (Goldenhar) is a congenital syndrome. Its phenotype differs from craniofacial anomalies to cardiac, vertebral or central nervous system defects. This syndrome is rare and its etiology is not apparent yet. Pericentric inversion of chromosome 9 is one of the most common structural balanced chromosomal aberrations with its incidences 15% to 25%. Herein we present ...

Molecular Study of Partial Deletions of AZFc Region of the Y Chromosome in Infertile Men

Background & Aims: The most significant cause of infertility in men is the genetic deletion in the azoospermia factor (AZF) region that is caused by the process of intra- and inter-chromosomal homologous recombination in amplicons. Homologous recombination could also result in partial deletions in AZF region. The aim of this research was to determine the association between the partial AZFc del...

Microduplication of Xp22.31 and MECP2 Pathogenic Variant in a Girl with Rett Syndrome: A Case Report

Rett syndrome (RS) is a neurodevelopmental infantile disease characterized by an early normal psychomotor development followed by a regression in the acquisition of normal developmental stages. In the majority of cases, it leads to a sporadic mutation in the MECP2 gene, which is located on the X chromosome. However, this syndrome has also been associated with microdeletions, gene translocations...
