Tertiary trisomy, or double trisomy, is a rare occurrence. We present two individuals with a previously unreported tertiary trisomy for chromosomes 5p and 21q in an eight-generation pedigree. Their phenotypes are compared with other partial trisomies of either 5p or 21q from the literature. The prop

A 9-month-old boy with pre-and post-natal growth retardation, microcephaly, plagiocephaly, and several minor anomalies had the initial karyotype: 46,XY,der(1)t(1;?) (p36.1;?). Further analysis showed that the der(1) was derived from an unfavorable segregation of a maternal complex chromosome rearran
A female fetus with bilateral renal agenesis and fetal ascites was found to have partial trisomy 13 (pter-q12.3) and partial trisomy 16 (p13.2-pter), 47,XX,+der(13)t(13;16)(q12.3; p13.2)mat. The chromosomal aberration was due to a 3:1 segregation with tertiary trisomy transmitted from a maternal rec
