چکیده
Two girls with mosaicism for an extra chromosome 9 are reported. Clinical findings included growth and mental retardation, facial dysmorphism, delayed ossification, single flexion crease, gastro-oesophageal reflux in one girl, and ventricular and atrial septal defects in the other patient. These findings are compared to the other previously reported cases of trisomy 9 mosaicism.

Unilateral radial aplasia and trisomy 22 mosaicism.
A child with unilateral radial aplasia, asymmetry, other malformations, and severe physical and mental retardation is reported. In blood and bone marrow cultures a low mosaicism for trisomy 22 was found. In a few cells a chromosome 22 was missing. The importance of early cytogenetic analysis on large numbers of cells is emphasised, especially in cases of asymmetry where mosaicism is suspected.
متن کاملA live infant with trisomy 14 mosaicism and nuclear abnormalities of the neutrophils.
Mosaic trisomy 14 is described in a patient with severe developmental retardation and congenital malformations. Together with a few previous reports, this case suggests the existence of a syndrome associated with this chromosome imbalance. Hitherto unrecognised manifestations of trisomy 14 mosaicism were, in our patient, abnormalities of the neutrophil nuclei, which consisted of multiple pedunc...
متن کاملAnother small supernumerary marker chromosome derived from chromosome 9 in a Klinefelter patient.
Marker chromosomes are very rare in Klinefelter patients and phenotypic findings are related to the affected chromosomal region. The phenotypic effects of small supernumerary marker chromosomes (sSMC) range from multiple malformations/mental retardation to no effect (ie a normal phenotype). This wide spectrum of phenotypes is due to the origin, structure and gene content of the marker chromosom...
متن کاملMosaic Trisomy 9 in a Male Fetus with Severe Facial Abnormality and Genital Hypoplasia
Fetal trisomy 9 is a rare chromosomal abnormality, which was difficult to diagnose in the prenatal period. Here is reported a case of mosaic trisomy 9 fetus, prenatally detected by ultrasound examinations in the second trimester and confirmed by karyotyping from amniocentesis and cordocentesis. The fetus presented multiple malformations, especially facial deformity, polycystic kidney disease an...
متن کاملTrisomy 9 Mosaicism Diagnosed In Utero
We present three cases of trisomy 9 mosaicism diagnosed by amniocentesis with ongoing pregnancies after referral to our center due to fetal abnormalities. Two cases were associated with severe fetal growth restriction (FGR), each of which resulted in an intrauterine fetal demise (IUFD) in the third trimester. The other case involved mild FGR with a congenital diaphragmatic hernia and resulted i...
