چکیده

A family is described in which 2 sibs had similar congenital abnormalities. Chromosome investigation of the mother and another child disclosed they were carriers of a translocation t(18;21)(q21;q22). The karyotype of one of the abnormal infants was determined and was found to be consistent with partial trisomy 18,46,XY,-21,+der (21),t(18;21) ((18pter leads to 18q21::21q22 leads to 2 lqter)mat.

Background: Mental retardation is defined as impaired mental capacity and ability to comply with environmental and social conditions. Chromosomal abnormalities are the most important causes of mental retardation. Carriers of balanced chromosomal translocation are phenotypically normal, although they may be at risk of infertility, recurrent miscarriage or giving birth to mentally retarded childr...

Inheritance of a Chromosome 3 and 21 Translocation in the Fetuses, with One also Having Trisomy 21, in Three Pregnancies in One Family

The majority of chromosome rearrangements are balanced reciprocal and Robertsonian translocations. It is now known that such abnormalities cause no phenotypic effect on the carrier but lead to increased risk of producing unbalanced gametes. Here, we report the inheritance of a translocation between chromosomes 3 and 21 in a family with one of two fetuses with Down Syndrome carrying the same tra...

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.

Reproductive possibilities for balanced translocation (14) carriers in families with partial trisomy of proximal 14q.

Two cases of 14q proximal partial trisomy in sisters from the same family are reported. Clinical features included craniofacial dysmorphism, skin depigmentation, slight anomalies of the limbs, muscular hypertonia, and physical and mental retardation. The third sister had an abnormal phenotype, different from that of her sibs, and proved to be a carrier of a balanced translocation (2;14)(q36;q21...

Total or partial duplication of chromosome 1q and whole arm translocation can result from unbalanced translocation of chromosomes, isochromosomes or jumping translocations. These structural rearrangements are reported as secondary aberrations associated with tumor progression, and advanced disease. Partial duplication of 1q resulting from der(18)t(1;18)(q12;p11) has been reported in Fanconi ane...
