چکیده

A patient with a partial deletion (q23 leads to qter) of the long arm of chromosome 11 presented with craniosynostosis and syndactyly. These characteristics, which have not been previously reported with 11q--, expand the phenotype of this syndrome and emphasise the need for chromosome analysis with banding techniques in multiple congenital anomaly syndromes, even if the patient could be classified as having a non-chromosomal syndrome.

A case of deletion 2q35----qter and a peculiar phenotype.

A girl with a high and microbrachycephalic cranium (but without craniosynostosis), antimongoloid palpebral fissures, external strabismus, microsomy, a peculiarly shaped nose, soft tissue syndactyly in the right hand and both feet, and psychomotor retardation was found to have a deletion of chromosome 2 (q35----qter) and a Robertsonian translocation 13;14 inherited from her healthy father. The g...

High-risk neuroblastoma tumors with 11q-deletion display a poor prognostic, chromosome instability phenotype with later onset.

Analysis of chromosomal aberrations is used to determine the prognosis of neuroblastomas (NBs) and to aid treatment decisions. MYCN amplification (MNA) alone is an incomplete poor prognostic factor, and chromosome 11q status has recently been included in risk classification. We analyzed 165 NB tumors using high-density SNP microarrays and specifically compared the high-risk groups defined by MN...

Deletion of JAM-C, a candidate gene for heart defects in Jacobsen syndrome, results in a normal cardiac phenotype in mice.

The 11q terminal deletion disorder (11q-) is a rare chromosomal disorder caused by a deletion in distal 11q. Fifty-six percent of patients have clinically significant congenital heart defects. A cardiac "critical region" has been identified in distal 11q that contains over 40 annotated genes. In this study, we identify the distal breakpoint of a patient with a paracentric inversion in distal 11...

Prenatal Diagnosis of a 2.5 Mb De Novo 17q24.1q24.2 Deletion Encompassing KPNA2 and PSMD12 Genes in a Fetus with Craniofacial Dysmorphism, Equinovarus Feet, and Syndactyly

Interstitial 17q24.1 or 17q24.2 deletions were reported after conventional cytogenetic analysis or chromosomal microarray analysis in patients presenting intellectual disability, facial dysmorphism, and/or malformations. We report on a fetus with craniofacial dysmorphism, talipes equinovarus, and syndactyly associated with a de novo 2.5 Mb 17q24.1q24.2 deletion. Among the deleted genes, KPNA2 a...

Prenatal diagnosis of mosaicism for 11q terminal deletion.

The phenotype of 11q terminal deletion also known as Jacobsen syndrome is a clinically well known entity whose diagnosis in infancy and childhood is based on clinical examination, hematological and cytogenetic findings. Hematological features in Jacobsen syndrome are very similar to those reported in Paris-Trousseau syndrome (PTS) which is also associated with11q terminal deletion. Karyotype an...
