Down's syndrome with a familial D/D reciprocal translocation and a G/G chromosome.

The presence of a translocation between two chromosomes in the I3-I5 (D) group does not usually give rise to any phenotypical abnormality and may be relatively common in the population (Hamerton, Giannelli, and Carter, I963). Such translocations have, however, been reported in a patient with XXY Klinefelter's syndrome (Lejeune, Turpin, and DeCourt, i960), and Hamerton et al. (I963) describe a f...

Partial monosomy 2p and partial trisomy 4q due to paternal translocation t(2;4)(p25.1;q31.3).

Clinical features in patients with segmental aneuploidy often vary depending on the size of the chromosomal segment involved. Monosomy 2p is usually observed as a part of more complex syndromes among probands of balanced reciprocal translocation carriers. Patients with dup4q syndrome have variable clinical features, which are both related to the size of duplicated segment of the 4q and specific...

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 ...

Down's syndrome and deletion of short arms of a G chromosome.

A woman in a family in which a G group chromosome (No. 21) with deleted short arms (21p-) is present has passed this chromosome to an intellectually deficient son, a normal son, and a daughter with Down's syndrome. Another daughter is chromosomally and phenotypically normal. As in other reports that focus on a concurrence of Gp- chromosomes and Down's anomaly, the possibility is considered that...
