A family with dominantly inherited aniridia in three generations is presented. All three patients had an apparently balanced chromosome translocation t(4;11)(q22;p13). The patients were otherwise clinically normal and without signs of Wilms' tumor; their erythrocyte catalase activities were within t
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
About 5-10% of sporadic Wilms' tumors (WT) are associated with mutations in the Wilms' tumor 1 gene (WT1). More than 90% of patients with Denys-Drash syndrome (DDS; characterized by renal nephropathy, gonadal anomaly, and predisposition to WT) show constitutional intragenic WT1 mutations. We describ
