چکیده

A child is described with a de novo direct duplication of the region 2q11 X 2 leads to 2q14 X 2. She probably represents the first reported case of proximal 2q duplication. The abnormalities included short stature, microcephaly, brachycephaly, depressed nasal bridge, prominent philtrum, congenital glaucoma, and mental retardation.

Inherited tandem duplication of the X chromosome: dup(X)(q13.2-q21.2) in a family.

A 2-year-old boy who was failing to thrive and who had multiple anomalies was found to have a maternally derived tandem duplication of the long arm of the X chromosome: dup(X)(q13.2-q21.2). The karyotyping interpretation was further confirmed by fluorescence in situ hybridization studies in which a double gene dosage of the X-inactivation-specific transcript (gene locus on Xq13.2) and a whole c...

Tandem duplication of the terminal band of the long arm of chromosome 7 (dir dup (7)(q36----qter)).

We report on a new case of a single band duplication of the long arm of chromosome 7, dir dup (7)(q36----qter). The major manifestations are developmental delay (particularly speech), frontal bossing, macrocrania, and constant drooling. When compared with other cases involving a 7q duplication of various segments, our patient has a few minor anomalies. This case illustrates the genotype/phenoty...

The clinical features and cytogenetic results of an 18 year old mentally handicapped female found to be a mosaic for a tandem duplication of chromosome 1 (46,XX,dup(1)(q12q22)/46,XX) are reported. The case is compared with the three previously described cases and possible mechanisms for the origin of the duplication are discussed. This patient was not found to have features of Proteus syndrome ...

A rare case of a de novo dup(19q) associated with a mild phenotype.

Partial trisomy of the long arm of chromosome 19q is an uncommon aneusomy and has been reported in only 18 cases. Fourteen of these were the result of unbalanced translocations. Only four cases were the result of pure duplications. The phenotype described includes microcephaly, heart malformations, anomalies of the genitourinary tract or gastrointestinal system, and growth retardation. Developm...
