Turner Syndrome with Isochromosome Xq and Familial Reciprocal Translocation t(4;16)(p15.2;p13.1)

چکیده
We present here a 16-year-old Turner syndrome patient with a complex karyotype that includes a maternally-inherited balanced translocation between chromosomes 4 and 16 and mosaicism of the isochromosome Xq10. Her karyotype was 45,X,t(4;16) (p15.2;p13.1)[9]/46,X,i(X) (q10),t(4;16)(p15.2;p13.1) [91]. The karyotype of her father was normal, whereas that of her mother had the same balanced translocation and numerical abnormalities of chromosome X and was designated as 45,X,t(4;16)(p15.2;p13.1) [2]/46,XX,t(4;16)(p15.2;p13.1)[93]/47,XXX,t(4;16) (p15.2; p13.1)[5]. The two siblings of the patient also had the same reciprocal translocation. We consider this to be the first such patient with an inherited reciprocal translocation and structural abnormality of the X chromosome (isochromosome Xq).

AbstractChromosomal translocations constitute one of the most important, yet uncommon, causes of primary amenorrhea and gonadal dysgenesis. Although X-autosome translocations are frequently associated with streak gonads and clinical features of the Turner syndrome, the majority of X-autosome carriers may present with a variable phenotype, developmental delay, and recognizable X-linked syndrome ...

Short stature is an important clinical feature of Turner syndrome (TS). In this report, a girl with short stature suspected to have Turner syndrome underwent cytogenetic analysis, which confirmd Turner syndrome by observing sex chromosomal monosomy using the karyotype test. In addition to Turner syndrome, Robertsonian (ROB) translocation t(13;14) was detected. As recommended by a genetic counse...

We are reporting a case of 47 chromosome complement with an extra rearranged chromosome 22pter→22qll:: llq23 → llqter in a child with multiple malformations whose mother has a balanced reciprocal translocation t(1l,22) with a history of two previous abortions. We emphasize the importance of family study in such cases.
