Hydrocephalus in an infant with trisomy 22.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present an infant with true trisomy 22. Mosaicism is ruled out by the finding of a 47,XX, +22 karyotype in all cells analysed originating from two embryonic germ layers. The physical findings are consistent with the previously noted features including developmental delay, ear abnormalities, micrognathia, clefting, and congenital heart disease. The patient is the first described with macrocephaly and hydrocephalus and the second with holoprosencephaly.

Agenesis of the corpus callosum (ACC) is a malformation which may occur either isolated or in association with other CNS or systemic abnormalities. ACC occurs sporadically, although the incidence is increased in chromosomal disorders such as trisomy 8, 13, or 18. Familial cases have also been reported. Apart from the CNS, the musculoskeletal and genitourinary systems may be affected as well. We...
