De novo translocation heterozygote with three reciprocal translocations.
نویسندگان
چکیده
An extremely rare case of a child with three balanced reciprocal translocations involving six different autosomes is described. These abnormalities have apparently arisen de novo and seem to have only relatively minor phenotypic effects. The meiotic possibilities are discussed and cytogenetic markers suggest that the damage may have occurred in a paternal gamete.

Balanced rearrangements of the autosomes: results of a longitudinal study of a newborn survey population.
Thirty-six infants were identified by cytogenetic screening at birth as having balanced rearrangements of their autosomes, and 30 of them took part in a longitudinal study of their development, together with four of their affected sibs. With the exception of one child with a de novo reciprocal translocation who died, all children attended normal schools. Congenital malformations and short statu...
متن کاملThe Incidence and Type of Chromosomal Translocations from Prenatal Diagnosis of 3800 Patients in the Republic of Macedonia
Robertsonian and reciprocal chromosomal translocations are the most frequent type of structural chromosomal aberrations in the human population. We report the frequency and type of detected translocations in 10 years of prenatal diagnosis of 3800 prenatal samples. The materials came from amniocentesis and chorionic villus samples (CVS). We detected seven Robertsonian translocations (0.18%), eig...
متن کاملCryptic deletions are a common finding in "balanced" reciprocal and complex chromosome rearrangements: a study of 59 patients.
Using array comparative genome hybridisation (CGH) 41 de novo reciprocal translocations and 18 de novo complex chromosome rearrangements (CCRs) were screened. All cases had been interpreted as "balanced" by conventional cytogenetics. In all, 27 cases of reciprocal translocations were detected in patients with an abnormal phenotype, and after array CGH analysis, 11 were found to be unbalanced. T...
متن کاملParental origin of de novo cytogenetically balanced reciprocal non-Robertsonian translocations.
De novo cytogenetically balanced reciprocal non-Robertsonian translocations are rare findings in clinical cytogenetics and might be associated with an abnormal phenotype. Knowledge of the parental origin and mechanisms of formation is still limited. By microdissection of the derivative chromosomes and their normal homologs from metaphases followed by microsatellite-mediated marker analysis we i...
