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
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
We report on a case of dup(l6p) and review previous cases. The triplicated chromosome region leading to this specific syndrome lies in 16~13.1 p13.3. Most of the cases are inherited and the mode of segregation was found to be 3: 1 in half of the cases, but these observations might be due to biases.
