چکیده
We report a female infant with congenital dislocation of the knee and dysmorphic features including a prominent forehead, midface hypoplasia, and micrognathia. Fluorescence in situ hybridisation and PCR amplification of microsatellite repeats were used to show that she had a de novo unbalanced translocation resulting in partial trisomy for 16q and partial monosomy for 15q (46,XX, -15, tder(15)t(15;16)(q26.1;q22). The consequences of partial aneuploidy of 16q are discussed.

Detection of abl/bcr Fusion Gene in Patients Affected by Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia by Dual-Colour Interphase Fluorescence in situ Hybridisation
Conventional cytogenetic is the standard technique for detection of Philadelphia (Ph) chromosome in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Evaluation of abelson murine leukemia/breakpoint cluster region (abl/bcr) fusion using dual-colour fluorescence in situ hybridization (D-FISH) is an alternative approach allowing rapid and reliable detection of the disease. We employed the technique of interphase D...
متن کاملApplication of conventional chromosomal aberration and fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) translocation in the assessment of occupationally derived irradiation
Background: Most of our current understanding of the biological effects of exposure to ionising radiation is based on conventional cytogenetic techniques, which enable us to determine the relationship between chromosomal aberration and dose received by radiation workers. However, conventional techniques have numerous limitations and chromosomal aberrations can be easily missed. Since FISH plays...

Insertional translocations in which a duplicated region of one chromosome is inserted into another chromosome are very rare. We report a 16.5-year-old girl with a terminal duplication at 9q34.3 of paternal origin inserted into 19q13.4. Chromosomal analysis revealed the karyotype 46,XX,der(19)ins(19;9)(q13.4;q34.3q34.3)pat. Cytogenetic microarray analysis (CMA) identified a ~2.3Mb duplication of...
متن کاملDetection of a de novo duplication of 1q32-qter by fluorescence in situ hybridisation in a boy with multiple malformations: further delineation of the trisomy 1q syndrome.
We report a dysmorphic boy with a de novo partial trisomy 1q. The boy has microcephaly, bilateral cleft lip and palate, low set and dysmorphic ears, brain anomalies, pulmonary stenosis, duodenal obstruction, dysplastic kidneys, and bifid thumbs. The trisomic segment 1q32-qter is duplicated with an inverted insertion at 1p36.3. The aberration was initially detected at amniocentesis and confirmed...
متن کاملA Rare Case of Duplication of Chromosome 2 (q31.3q36.3) in a 4.5-year-old Boy and Review of the Literature
De novo duplication of 2q is very rare. Most cases of 2q duplications result from familial translocations, and are associated with simultaneous monosomy of another chromosome segment. To our knowledge and search in English literature there are less than 20 reported cases of isolated 2q duplication. Hereby we introduce a 4.5-year-old Iranian boy of a non-consanguineous marriage who was referred ...
