We describe the prenatal diagnosis and fetal phenotype of partial trisomy 12 (p13.3-pter) and partial trisomy 21 (pter-q21) due to a 3:1 segregation with tertiary aneuploidy transmitted from a maternal reciprocal translocation 12;21. Genetic amniocentesis of a 39-year-old gravida 2, para 1 woman at
A case of partial trisomy 9 is described in a mentally retarded and dysmorphic child, confirming that this chromosome unbalance results in a characteristic clinical entity. This trisomy arose through aberrant segregation of translocation chromosome during meiosis in the patient's mother, who is a ba
We describe a 1-year-old boy with mental and physical retardation, a large anterior fontanel, brachycephaly with flat occiput, short and stubby fingers, generalized hypotonia, ocular hypertelorism, low-nasal bridge, long philtrum, high-narrow palate, apparently low-set ears, and a small mandible. Cy
A subgroup of pleomorphic adenomas of the salivary glands is characterized by translocations involving chromosome 8, with consistent breakpoints at 8q 12. As part of a positional cloning effort to isolate the gene(s) affected by these translocations we now report the mapping of the 8q I 2 breakpoint
