چکیده

A girl is described with bilateral retinal colobomata, Fallot's tetralogy, unilateral choanal atresia, abnormalities of the external ears, bilateral sensorineural deafness, a unilateral facial nerve palsy, and a tracheo-oesophageal fistula. A clinical diagnosis of the CHARGE association was made. She had an apparently balanced whole arm translocation involving chromosomes 6 and 8. Parental karyotypes were normal.

Clinical variability of patients with the t(6;8)(q27;p12) and FGFR1OP-FGFR1 fusion: two further cases.

We report two new cases with the t(6;8)(q27;p12) and FGFR1OP-FGFR1 fusion. Case 1 presented with polycythaemia vera (PV) and evolved over 4 years to a myeloproliferative disorder (MPD) resembling the 8p11 myeloproliferative syndrome (EMS). Case 2 presented with B-cell lymphoblastic leukaemia (B-ALL). These cases illustrate the clinical heterogeneity observed in patients with FGFR1 rearrangement...

A peptidase gene in chromosome 8q is disrupted by a balanced translocation in a duane syndrome patient.

PURPOSE To identify the gene disrupted by a de novo reciprocal balanced translocation t(6;8)(q26;q13) in a patient with Duane retraction syndrome (DURS). The break point in chromosome arm 8q is positioned within the DURS1 critical region. METHODS Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis using cosmid and BAC clones covering the DURS1 locus was performed to define the break point posi...

Balanced Reciprocal Translocation t(X;1) in a Girl with Tall Stature and Primary Amenorrhea

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 ...

CHARGE association with choanal atresia and inner ear hypoplasia in a child with a de novo chromosome translocation t(2;7)(p14;q21.11).

A 3-year-old boy was diagnosed with CHARGE association on the basis of bilateral choanal atresia, absence of the semicircular canals, hypoplastic cochleae, genital hypoplasia, growth and developmental delays, cranial nerve dysfunction, and facial anomalies. Ophthalmologic and cardiac evaluations were normal. He was found to have an apparently balanced t(2;7)(p14;q21.11) chromosomal translocatio...
