Two Cases of Partial Trisomy 4p and Partial Trisomy 14q
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present clinical and cytogenetic data on 2 cases of partial trisomy 4p and partial trisomy 14q. Both patients had an extra der(14)t(4;14)(p15.31;q12) chromosome due to a 3:1 segregation from a balanced translocation carrier mother. Array analyses indicated that their chromosomal breakpoints were similar, but there was no relationship between the 2 families. Both patients showed prominent growth retardation and psychomotor developmental delay. Other phenotypic manifestations were generally mild and variable; for example, patient 1 had a short palpebral fissure and low-set ears whereas patient 2 had a round face, asymmetric eyes, small ears, a short neck, finger/toe abnormalities, and behavioral problems.

Reproductive possibilities for balanced translocation (14) carriers in families with partial trisomy of proximal 14q.
Two cases of 14q proximal partial trisomy in sisters from the same family are reported. Clinical features included craniofacial dysmorphism, skin depigmentation, slight anomalies of the limbs, muscular hypertonia, and physical and mental retardation. The third sister had an abnormal phenotype, different from that of her sibs, and proved to be a carrier of a balanced translocation (2;14)(q36;q21...

We report a case of partial monosomy 7q and partial trisomy 14q in a 4 year old male with microcephaly, prominent eyes, arched eyebrows, malformed ears and overlapping of toes. The unbalanced rearrangement resulted in monosomy of 7q33-->qter and trisomy of 14q32.2-->qter. The clinical phenotype was similar to the other cases of 7q deletion.

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.
