the interpretation of supernumerary chromosome is important for genetic counseling and prognosis. here, we used snp array and conventional karyotyping method to identify a denovo marker chromosome originated from chromosome 22 and 11 in a newborn transferred to the neonatal intensive care unit of shahid sadoughi hospital in 2015.  clinical abnormalities identified in the newborn were dysmorphic...

The case of a 10-month-old girl with an extra G-like chromosome is presented. Quinacrine, trypsin-Giemsa, and reverse banding identified the extra chromosome as no. 22. The phenotype of the patient is unique in that unilateral iris coloboma was observed, unlike the 18 cases of full trisomy 22 already published. This represents the first reported case of full trisomy 22 with this coloboma, or 'c...

A child with many symptoms of trisomy 22 syndrome is described. The child showed a 46,XY/47,XY,+22 chromosome constitution. This is the first reported case of a trisome 22 phenotype with such a mosaic karyotype.

A girl with a new de novo translocation of 4q onto the short arm of acrocentric 22 is reported as a case of "pure" partial trisomy 4q. Her karyotype was 46, XX,-22, +mar, t(4;22)(q25-->qter;p11) identified by Giemsa staining and FISH. Comparison of the proband with previously reported cases of "pure" partial trisomy 4q showed the main clinical features to be growth retardation, psychomotor reta...

Partial trisomy 2p is a rare but relatively well-defined syndrome with distinctive clinical features, including marked psychomotor delay, dysmorphic face, and congenital heart disease. The phenotype of trisomy 18p is variable, from normal appearance to moderate mental retardation. Most cases of trisomy 2p and trisomy 18p result from the inheritance of an unbalanced segregant from a balanced par...

Complete trisomy 22, with or without mosaicism, has been reported as a distinct syndrome. In this report an infant is described who was externally male but with female rudimentary internal organs and whose karyotype was 47,XX+22.
