1/747. Partial trisomy 9q--chromosomal syndrome.The clinical features consisting mainly of enophthalmos, beaked nose, narrow palpebral fissures, receding chin, long fingers and toes, typical for chromsomal syndrome or partial trisomy 9q, were confirmed in a new case.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 1keywords = partial trisomy, trisomy (Clic here for more details about this article) |
2/747. Partial trisomy 20p derived from a t(18;20) translocation.Two sibs show a strikingly concordant syndrome of congenital anomalies and G-banding reveals that each has partial trisomy 20p resulting from a t(18;20) translocation. They resemble other cases of partial trisomy 20p in some respects but also differ in some ways. Their normal sib, mother, and half-aunt are balanced heterozygotes for the t(18;20) translocation. The segregation of the balanced translocation in this family is associated with an extremely poor reproductive record. The segregation pattern closely parallels that of a t(13;20) translocation in a family described by Carrel et al. (1971) and Francke (1972). The similarity of segregation patterns is predictable on the basis of probable pachytene configurations, but the dissimilarity of phenotypes between families is not readily explained.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 1.5141955631416keywords = partial trisomy, trisomy (Clic here for more details about this article) |
3/747. Severe mental retardation in a boy with partial trisomy 10q and partial monosomy 2q.A severely mentally subnormal child with many physical stigmata was shown to have the karyotype 46,XY,-2, der(2),t(2;10)(q31;q24)pat. Full evaluation of this patient's karyotype depended on the family studies. It was shown that a balanced translocation t(2,10) was present in 4 normal males in 3 generations.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 2.0567822525663keywords = partial trisomy, trisomy (Clic here for more details about this article) |
4/747. prenatal diagnosis of a satellited non-acrocentric chromosome derived from a maternal translocation (10;13)(p13;p12) and review of literature.We identified a familial balanced translocation involving chromosomes 10 and 13 through the finding of a satellited 10p chromosome in a fetus. The phenotype of two unbalanced products of the translocation resulting in pure monosomy 10p13 and trisomy 10p13 is described. This familial case and two of our unreported cases are discussed in the light of other prenatal observations with satellited non-acrocentric chromosomes reported in the literature.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 0.1214511092146keywords = trisomy (Clic here for more details about this article) |
5/747. Case of partial trisomy 9p and partial trisomy 14q resulting from a maternal translocation: overlapping manifestations of characteristic phenotypes.We report on a female infant with partial trisomy 9p (pter-->p13) and partial trisomy 14q (pter-->q22) resulting from a 3:1 segregation of a maternal reciprocal translocation (9;14)(p13;q22). Both trisomy 9p and partial trisomy 14q have been described as recognized phenotypes with characteristic patterns of anomalies. This patient appears to be the first reported with a partial duplication of both 9p and 14q resulting in an overlapping phenotype including minor facial anomalies, cleft palate, and hand-foot anomalies. However, the facial findings were more pronounced than commonly observed in cases with only one or the other duplicated chromosome regions, resulting in a distinctive appearance.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 5.777602303772keywords = partial trisomy, trisomy (Clic here for more details about this article) |
6/747. Intracytoplasmic sperm injection pregnancy with trisomy 20p and monosomy 22q in a newborn resulting from a balanced paternal translocation.In infertile men who carry a balanced reciprocal translocation, intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) may induce a pregnancy with an abnormal karyotype. This report describes a previously unreported paternal reciprocal translocation leading to a chromosomally unbalanced ICSI pregnancy. The triplet pregnancy resulted in 1 normal girl, 1 physically normal boy with the same balanced paternal translocation, and a severely malformed boy with trisomy 20p and monosomy 22q who died in the neonatal period.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 0.60725554607302keywords = trisomy (Clic here for more details about this article) |

8/747. A translocation breakpoint at chromosome band 12q13 associated with B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia.Low-grade B-cell lymphoproliferative disorders are frequently associated with an extra copy of chromosome 12. This well-documented acquired anomaly is one of the most specific numerical chromosome alterations to occur in human hematological malignancies. We have cytogenetically characterized bone marrow and peripheral blood cells from a patient with B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) having a unique acquired translocation involving chromosomes 6 and 12, t(6;12) (p21.3;q13), which implicates band 12q13 as the site of the gene(s) important in this lymphoproliferative B-cell disorder. aneuploidy, in the form of trisomy of chromosome 12, is not a requirement for neoplastic transformation in B-cell CLL, but gene rearrangement (present case) or nondisjunctional acquisition of additional copies of defective genes on chromosome 12 at band q13 may be involved in the genesis or progression of this disorder.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 0.1214511092146keywords = trisomy (Clic here for more details about this article) |
9/747. "Essentially pure" partial trisomy (6)(p23-->pter) in two brothers due to maternal t(6;17)(p23;p13.3).We report on two brothers with low birth weight, growth retardation, microcephaly, minor facial anomalies, mental retardation, and trisomy (6)(p23-->pter) due to a maternal t(6;17)(p23;p13.3). As demonstrated by fluorescent in situ hybridisation (FISH) with the Miller-Dieker cosmid probe (D17S379) and with a subtelomeric probe (D17S34) the additional deletion on 17p13 is very small, and therefore, the phenotype of these two boys is most likely the result of essentially pure partial trisomy 6p. Comparison of the clinical findings with those of ten cases from the literature of dup(6p) with a breakpoint in or more distal to 6p23 allows delineation of a specific phenotype of dup(6)(p23-->pter) characterized by low birth weight, growth retardation, microcephaly, and blepharophimosis, blepharoptosis, microstomia, and abnormal ears.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 2.6924289249225keywords = partial trisomy, trisomy (Clic here for more details about this article) |
10/747. Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma of the rectum with chromosomal translocation of the t(11;18)(q21;q21) and an additional aberration of trisomy 3.A rare case of primary mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma (MALT) of the rectum is reported. A 56-yr-old man was referred to our hospital for further examination and treatment of rectal neoplasm. A physical examination and laboratory data showed no special abnormalities. However, endoscopic colorectal observation revealed multiple red and slightly elevated nodular lesions with erosive changes of the rectum. The lesions were composed of diffuse, small atypical lymphoid cells (i.e., centrocyte-like cells) and were stained with L26 and BCL-2 but not cyclin d1. Surface markers of cells obtained from biopsy specimens were CD5-, CD10-, CD19 , CD20 , kappa , and lambda-. No BCL-2 gene rearrangement was observed. The clonal karyotype of t(11;18)(q21;q21) was observed in six of nine lymphoid cells. trisomy was also identified two of 144 cells by fluorescence in situ hybridization. We report a rare case of the rectal MALT lymphoma bearing characteristic chromosomal aberrations; t(11;18)(q21;q21) and trisomy 3. We suggest that chromosomal analysis using biopsy specimens may be useful for the diagnosis of MALT lymphoma.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 0.60725554607302keywords = trisomy (Clic here for more details about this article) |
