چکیده

An abnormal female infant, who survived for 10 months with almost complete trisomy 16p and monosomy of sub-band 21q22.3, is described. The chromosome anomaly was the result of an unbalanced segregation of a maternal balanced translocation t(16;21)(p11;q22.3). The partial monosomy was considered to have had little or no adverse phenotypic effect. Cases with trisomy of chromosome 16 material are reviewed. It appears that while full trisomy 16 always results in early spontaneous abortion, trisomy 16p or 16q may be compatible with limited postnatal survival.

Partial trisomy for 5q and monosomy for 12p in a liveborn child as a result of a complex five breakpoint chromosome rearrangement in a parent.

A balanced complex chromosome rearrangement (CCR) involving four chromosomes is very rare and may lead to different types of aneuploid germ cells. We report a liveborn child with multiple congenital anomalies and an apparently balanced translocation, t(11;12). High resolution chromosome analysis in the mother showed a CCR involving chromosomes 5, 11, 12, and 16. In situ hybridisation showed tha...

RECONSIDERATION OF THE CAT EYE SYNDROME: RECIPROCAL TRANSLOCATION T(1l,22) LEADING TO PARTIAL TRISOMY OF llq AND 22.

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.

FISH characterisation of an identical (16)(p11.2p12.2) tandem duplication in two unrelated patients with autistic behaviour.

P artial trisomy 16p is a rare chromosomal anomaly in newborns: of the fewer than 30 carrier patients so far reported, most were born to parents with a balanced translocation involving the p arm of chromosome 16. Pure partial trisomy 16p has been reported in seven patients, three of whom (all showing behavioural problems with autistic traits) carried a tandem duplication of the (16)(p11.2–p12) ...
