Deletion 2q: two new cases with karyotypes 46,XY,del(2)(q31q33) and 46,XX,del(2)(q36).

We describe the clinical and cytogenetic findings of two patients with deletions of the long arm of chromosome 2. One has an interstitial deletion identical to that found in a previously reported patient, although they are phenotypically dissimilar. The other patient has a terminal deletion, the first such deletion reported to date.

     Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is a hereditary autosomal dominant cancer syndrome, results from germ line mutation or deletion of the Adenomatous Polyposis Coli (APC) gene on chromosome 5q21. Patients with FAP suffer from multiple polyps mainly at the colorectal region as well as other parts of the gastrointestinal tract, which has propensity to transform into carcinoma. FAP has also...

Interstitial deletion of the distal long arm of chromosome 4, del (4)(q33-q35), in association with paternal balanced translocation.

Interstitial deletions of the long arm of chromosome 4 are rare. The deletions may occur at the proximal or the distal portions of the chromosome and different breakpoints may be involved. We report an interstitial deletion of 4q: 46XY der 4 (q28;q35) in a six-year-old boy with dysmorphic features associated with moderate mental retardation. Parental chromosomal analysis showed a balanced pater...

Interstitial deletion of the distal long arm of chromosome 4.

We report the first case of an interstitial deletion of the distal long arm of chromosome 4 (q31.22----q34.2). The major clinical features are described and compared to those of other published reports of del 4q, mainly those sharing a common deleted segment with the present case (both interstitial and terminal). This comparison suggests that the characteristic phenotype attributed to terminal ...
