We report on a de novo interstitial deletion of (6)(q15q22.2) in a 5-year-old boy with developmental delay, microcephaly, facial dysmorphism, cryptorchidism, congenital heart defect, and split-hand malformation. Previous reports and this patient suggest that 6q21 may contain a gene or genes related either directly or indirectly to limb development. 相似文献

Chromosomal syndromes may result from extremely small cytogenetic alterations, involving as little as one chromosomal sub-band. An example is the cri-du-chat (cat cry) syndrome, in which the critical deletion appears to involve the sub-bands 5p15.1-3. Aside from a sporadic deletion of 5p, the loss of material may result from an interstitial deletion, caused by the malsegregation of a balanced parental translocation, or, in exceptional cases, as the consequence of a sporadic or familial chromosomal inversion which has been modified by unequal crossing-over (recombination aneuploidy). In addition, in certain children with the clinical syndrome (11 of 331 in a recent review) the deletion cannot be proven cytogenetically and is presumed to be submicroscopic. In the case described here, an intrachromosomal rearrangement of chromosome 5--an invper(5)(p15q14 or 15) or an ins(5) (p15q12q12)--is segregating in the maternal family. Three of the four children born to the couple were abnormal. The first boy, affected with cleft lip, pyloric stenosis and inguinal hernias, died at 4 months of age. The second died at 3 weeks with microcephaly and agenesis of the corpus callosum, cleft palate, heart malformation, and sexual ambiguity. A third boy, now 14 years old, is phenotypically normal and has a normal karyotype. The female proband, seen by us at 9 years of age, showed the clinical features of the cri-du-chat syndrome, with severe psychomotor and staturoponderal retardation, facial dysmorphism, congenital heart defect, and the peculiar voice for which she had received the nickname of "kitten". Her karyotype shows the same variation of chromosome 5 present in her mother and grandmother, characterized on G bands by an additional dark band on 5p15. As there is no evidence for a reciprocal translocation in the mother, the most probable explanation is that of a familial inversion or insertion within chromosome 5. This rearrangement, subject to meiotic modifications, could have been responsible for the complex malformations observed in 3 of the 4 children, including our proband who has a clinical diagnosis of the cri-du-chat syndrome. 相似文献

We describe a 7-year-old boy with a complex rearrangement involving the whole short arm of chromosome 9 defined by means of molecular cytogenetic techniques. The rearrangement is characterized by a 18.3 Mb terminal deletion associated with the inverted duplication of the adjacent 21,5 Mb region. The patient shows developmental delay, psychomotor retardation, hypotonia. Other typical features of 9p deletion (genital disorders, midface hypoplasia, long philtrum) and of the 9p duplication (brachycephaly, down slanting palpebral fissures and bulbous nasal tip) are present. Interestingly, he does not show trigonocephaly that is the most prominent dysmorphism associated with the deletion of the short arm of chromosome 9. Patient's phenotype and the underlying flanking opposite 9p imbalances are compared with that of reported patients and the proposed critical regions for 9p deletion and 9p duplication syndromes. 相似文献

We report a 15 month old boy with prominent metopic suture, epicanthal folds, strabismus, low-set ears, microretrognathia, large anterior fontanel, bilateral simian creases, muscular hypotonia, and severe psychomotor retardation. He also had West syndrome. An electroencephalogram showed hypsarrythmia, and cranial MR indicated a myelinisation delay. Standard karyotyping showed additional material on one chromosome 9p. Using FISH, a terminal 7q duplication spanning 26 Mb in size and a terminal 9p deletion sized (at least) 9.1 Mb were identified. The father had a karyotype of t(7;9)(q33;p23) and the mother's karyotype was normal. The boy presented typical facial features of the distal 7q duplication syndrome but no genital anomalies attributable to his distal 9p deletion. We assume that the severe epilepsy is likely due to the trisomy 7q. 相似文献

We report on 2 similarly affected cousins with a compound imbalance resulting from a familial t(5;9)(q34;p23) and entailing both an ~17-Mb 5q terminal duplication and an ~12-Mb 9p terminal deletion as determined by G-banding, subtelomere FISH, and aCGH. The proband's karyotype was 46,XX,der(9)t(5;9)(q34;p23)mat.ish der(9)t(5;9)(q34;p23)(9pter-,5qter+).arr 5q34q35(163,328,000-180,629,000)×3, 9p24p23(194,000-12,664,000)×1. Her cousin had the same unbalanced karyotype inherited from his father. The clinical phenotype mainly consists of a distinct craniofacial dysmorphism featuring microcephaly, flat facies, down slanting palpebral fissures, small flat nose, long philtrum, and small mouth with thin upper lip. Additional remarkable findings were craniosynostosis of several sutures, craniolacunia and preaxial polydactyly in the proband and hypothyroidism in both subjects. The observed clinical constellation generally fits the phenotypic spectrum of the 5q distal duplication syndrome (known also as Hunter-McAlpine syndrome), except for the thyroid insufficiency which can likely be ascribed to the concurrent 9p deletion, as at least 4 other 9pter monosomic patients without chromosome 5 involvement had this hormonal disorder. The present observation further confirms the etiology of the HMS phenotype from gain of the 5q35→qter region, expands the clinical pictures of partial trisomy 5q and monosomy 9p, and provides a comprehensive list of 160 patients with 5q distal duplication. 相似文献

We report a male patient with a karyotype of 46,XY, der(4)t(1;4)(q42.1;q35.1) inherited from a maternal balanced translocation involving chromosome 1q and 4q. The boy had corpus callosum dysgenesis, laryngomalacia, tracheobronchus, facial dysmorphism, simian creases, and developmental retardation. The first three features are unique compared to previous literature reports on distal partial trisomy 1q. This case report allows a further delineation of the distal partial trisomy 1q syndrome. 相似文献

Summary A significant decrease in the proportion of 13q14-deleted cells over a 9-month period was observed in a boy with retinoblastoma and 13q14 deletion mosaicism. To evaluate whether this phenomenon is generally the case, the bloods of three retinoblastoma patients with 13q14 deletion mosaicism reported in 1981 and 1982 were reexamined. A significant decrease in the proportion of abnormal cells was observed in three of four patients including the present case, suggesting that a 13q14 deletion mosaicism might disappear with age in some individuals. 相似文献

We report clinical and molecular investigations in a boy with karyotype 46,Y,der(X)t(X;Y)(qter-->p22.3::q11.21-->qter) and his mother with karyotype 46,X,der(X)t(X;Y)(qter-->p22.3::q11.21-->qter). Haplo-insufficiency for the Xp22.3-->pter chromosomal region in the boy resulted in postnatal growth retardation, developmental delay, partial ichthyosis and facial dysmorphism, but normal external genitals. His mother has a normal phenotype with normal stature and gonadal function but borderline intelligence. FISH-analysis showed a duplication of the Y-heterochromatin probe in the proband and a deletion of the Y933D4 probe in his mother. Molecular investigations situated the Xp22.3 breakpoint between DXS278 and the KAL gene and the Yq11.21 breakpoint between the DYS391 and DYS390 in the proband and his mother. X-inactivation study was performed by analysis of the polymorphic CAG-repeat in the androgen-receptor gene as described showing a normal random (40% versus 60%) inactivation pattern in the mother. The manifestations in male and female with loss of the Xp22.3-->pter and gain of the Yq11.21-->qter chromosomal region are discussed. 相似文献

Summary Partial 18q12 trisomy, due to intrachromosomal duplication, was found in a severely mentally retarded boy. The finding of nonspecific dysmorphism in this patient demonstrates that trisomy of band 18q12 is accompanied by neither a full nor an incomplete 18 trisomy phenotype, indicating that this phenotype may be due solely to trisomy of the 18q11 band. 相似文献

We present clinical and developmental data on a girl with a de novo terminal deletion of the long arm of chromosome 4, del(4)(q33). The patient was evaluated at birth and followed up until 5 years of age. She showed facial and digital dysmorphism, a complex congenital heart defect, a large occipital encephalocele, and postnatal growth deficiency. Her neuropsychomotor milestones were delayed, and she developed learning difficulties. Apart from standard Giemsa banding, a molecular genetic analysis was performed using a comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) array. This revealed a terminal deletion at the band 4q32.3, which is directly adjacent to 4q33. The clinical findings in our patient differ from those described previously in patients with del(4)(q33) and del(4)(q32), respectively. In particular, the prominent occipital encephalocele has not been observed before in a terminal 4q deletion. 相似文献

Clinical and cytogenetical findings are reported and discussed on two siblings with discordant phenotypes despite having both a terminal 11q deletion and a distal 12q duplication resulting from an unbalanced segregation of a balanced translocation t(11:12)(q23:q24.1) mat. The oldest child, a girl, is the index patient. Her clinical features include intrauterine and postnatal growth retardation, fetal distress, mild hypotonia, early feeding difficulties, moderate developmental delay, especially in language acquisition, a velopharyngeal insufficiency with repeated otorhinopharyngeal infections, facial dysmorphism, heart ventricular septal defect, and abnormal hyperactive behaviour with sometimes autistic tendencies. The facial dysmorphic features notably consist of microcephaly, hypertelorism, large palpebral fissures, large eyes with alternant divergent strabismus, long eyelashes, a long and broad nasal bridge, a short "crested" nose with salient tip, a fishmouth with large spaces between teeth and flat palate, retrognathism, large ears and multiple dimples. The second affected child is a boy showing low birthweight, moderate developmental retardation with mainly no active language at 32 months, behaviour abnormalities with an autistic tendency, and no major physical anomalies apart from a slight facial hypotonia with often open mouth, dimples on the shoulders and right cryptorchidism. The authors stress the variable clinical expression of the chromosomal imbalance in this family resulting in low birthweight, developmental delay, abnormal behaviour, but different degrees of physical features and dysmorphism. The possible contribution of each of the two aneusomies to the phenotype is discussed. 相似文献

We present prenatal diagnosis and array comparative genomic hybridization characterization of 3q26.31–q29 duplication and 9q34.3 microdeletion in a fetus with omphalocele, ventricular septal defect, increased nuchal translucency, abnormal first-trimester maternal screening and facial dysmorphism with distinct features of the 3q duplication syndrome and Kleefstra syndrome. The 26.61-Mb duplication of 3q26.31–q29 encompasses EPHB3, CLDN1 and CLDN16, and the 972-kb deletion of 9q34.3 encompasses EHMT1. We review the literature of partial trisomy 3q associated with omphalocele and discuss the genotype–phenotype correlation in this case. 相似文献

The DiGeorge syndrome (DGS) is a developmental defect of the third and fourth pharyngeal pouches, which is associated with congenital heart defects, hypoparathyroidism, cell-mediated immunodeficiency, velo-pharyngeal insufficiency and craniofacial dysmorphism. The aetiological factor in a great majority of DGS cases is monosomy for the chromosomal region 22q11. To analyze DGS at the molecular level, a new molecular probe (DGCR680) encompassing the ADU balanced translocation breakpoint was prepared. When 13 Korean patients with DGS-type congenital heart disease were analyzed with this probe, 9 turned out to have a deletion at this locus, and all of them except one exhibited a typical facial dysmorphism associated DGS. Though only 9 independent patients were detected to have a deletion at the locus using the commercial probe N25 (D22S75), which maps at about 160 kb from the ADU breakpoint to the telomeric end, results from fluorescence in situ hybridization revealed a deletion in all cases tested at this locus. Two patients who had a deletion at the locus D22S75 but not at DGCR680 did not exhibit any DGS-type facial abnormalities. This result implies that the 680 bp probe covering the ADU translocation breakpoint might be a candidate for a molecular marker that can distinguish a specific phenotype, such as facial features associated with the DiGeorge syndrome. This study also suggested that systematic approaches with several small DNA probes along the DGCR could help to dissect the complex phenotypes associated with the DiGeorge syndrome, such as cardiac defects, abnormal faces, thymic hypoplasia, cleft palate, and hypocalcemia, etc. 相似文献

De novo translocation (2;18)(q21;q22) in a patient with severe epilepsy developmental delay and mild dysmorphism: We report on a patient presenting with severe epilepsy, hypotonia, developmental delay, blepharophimosis, low-set ears, camptodactyly and tapering fingers, and cutaneous syndactyly of toes II and III of the right foot. The MRI showed some loss of volume of the white matter and delayed myelination, no other specific anomalies were present. Chromosome analysis revealed a translocation involving chromosomes 2 and 18, which was characterized further by FISH using band-specific probes. The possibility of a submicroscopic deletion is discussed and the patient is compared with patients reported in the literature with either 2q21 or 18q22 deletion. 相似文献

We present rapid aneuploidy diagnosis of partial trisomy 3q (3q27.3→qter) and partial monosomy 14q (14q31.3→qter) of paternal origin by aCGH using uncultured amniocytes in a fetus with hypotonia, scoliosis, arthrogryposis, hyperextensible joints, facial dysmorphism, ventricular septal defect, pulmonary stenosis, clenched hands, clubfoot, scalp edema and right hydronephrosis. We discuss the genotype–phenotype correlation of 3q duplication syndrome and terminal 14q deletion syndrome. We demonstrate that fetuses with a paternal-origin deletion of 14q involving the 14q32.2 imprinted region may prenatally present the upd(14)mat-like phenotype such as hypotonia, scoliosis, arthrogryposis and hyperextensible joints. 相似文献

A male patient is reported with terminal 10q26 deletion, developmental retardation, special behaviour, and multiple clinical anomalies including hypotonia, short stature of postnatal onset, short webbed neck, craniofacial dysmorphism, pectus excavatum with widely spaced small nipples, cryptorchidism with scrotal hypoplasia, limb and musculoskeletal anomalies. The facial dysmorphism mainly consisted of trigonocephaly, a long, triangular and asymmetrical face, hypertelorism with pseudoepicanthus, broad nasal bridge, high-arched palate, retrognathia, low-set dysplastic auricles and, on ophthalmologic examination, strabismus, astigmatism and myopia. Some of these clinical stigmata were suggesting the diagnosis of Noonan syndrome. The extremities showed special features including shortening of proximal limbs, brachydactyly with syndactyly of toes II-III and left fingers III-IV, hypoplastic toenails and joint abnormalities. A diastasis of abdominal muscles was noted and, on X-rays a thoracic scoliosis and bilateral coxa valga were evidenced. Analyses of G- and T-banded chromosomes complemented by FISH analyses using different subtelomere probes detected a terminal 10q26 deletion. Subsequent FISH studies using different probes of the 10q26 region were performed in an attempt to closely define the breakpoint and the extent of the deletion and, thereby, to allow karyotype/phenotype comparison between this patient and a previously reported case with an apparently similar 10q26 deletion. 相似文献

Congenital hypoparathyroidism, growth retardation and facial dysmorphism is a rare autosomal recessive disorder seen among children born to consanguineous couple of Arab ethnicity. This syndrome is commonly known as Sanjad-Sakati or hypoparathyroidism-retardation-dysmorphism syndrome (HRD). We report 13-year-old Hindu boy with hypoparathyroidism, tetany, facial dysmorphism and developmental delay, compatible with HRD syndrome. 相似文献

A clinically recognizable 9q subtelomeric deletion syndrome has recently been established. Common features seen in these patients are severe mental retardation, hypotonia, brachycephaly, flat face with hypertelorism, synophrys, anteverted nares, cupid bow or tented upper lip, everted lower lip, prognathism, macroglossia, conotruncal heart defects, and behavioral problems. The minimal critical region responsible for this 9q subtelomeric deletion (9q-) syndrome has been estimated to be <1 Mb and comprises the euchromatin histone methyl transferase 1 gene (EHMT1). Previous studies suggested that haploinsufficiency for EHMT1 is causative for 9q subtelomeric deletion syndrome. We have performed a comprehensive mutation analysis of the EHMT1 gene in 23 patients with clinical presentations reminiscent of 9q subtelomeric deletion syndrome. This analysis revealed three additional microdeletions that comprise the EHMT1 gene, including one interstitial deletion that reduces the critical region for this syndrome. Most importantly, we identified two de novo mutations--a nonsense mutation and a frameshift mutation--in the EHMT1 gene in patients with a typical 9q- phenotype. These results establish that haploinsufficiency of EHMT1 is causative for 9q subtelomeric deletion syndrome. 相似文献

Chromosome 18 abnormalities rank among the most common autosomal anomalies with 18q being the most frequently affected. A deletion of 18q has been attributed to microcephaly, mental retardation, short stature, facial dysmorphism, myelination disorders, limb and genitourinary malformations and congenital aural atresia. On the other hand, duplications of 18q have been associated with the phenotype of Edwards syndrome. Critical chromosomal regions for both phenotypes are contentious. In this report, we describe the first case of an 11-year old male with a combined interstitial duplication 18q22.1, triplication 18q22.1q22.2 and terminal deletion 18q22.2q23 with phenotypic features of isolated 18q deletion syndrome and absence of phenotypic features characteristic of Edwards syndrome despite duplication of the suggested critical region. This report allows for reevaluation of proposed critical intervals for the phenotypes in deletion 18q syndrome and Edwards syndrome. 相似文献

The Langer-Giedion syndrome (LGS), which is characterized by craniofacial dysmorphism and skeletal abnormalities, is caused by a genetic defect in 8q24.1. We have used 13 anonymous DNA markers from an 8q24.1-specific microdissection library, as well as c-myc and thyroglobulin gene probes, to map the deletion breakpoints in 16 patients with LGS. Twelve patients had a cytogenetically visible deletion, two patients had an apparently balanced translocation, and two patients had an apparently normal karyotype. In all cases except one translocation patient, loss of genetic material was detected. The DNA markers fall into 10 deletion intervals. Clone L48 (D8S51) defines the shortest region of deletion overlap (SRO), which is estimated to be less than 2 Mbp. Three clones--p17-2.3 EE (D8S43), L24 (D8S45), and L40 (D8S49) - which flank the SRO recognize evolutionarily conserved sequences. 相似文献
