โœฆ Synopsis


A patient with uniparental heterodisomy for chromosome 16 presented initially at prenatal diagnosis with a karyotype of 47, XX + 16 on chorionic villus sampling at 11 weeks gestation. The pregnancy was proceeding normally and follow up amniocentesis showed a normal female karyotype. At birth, the child was healthy, but had intrauterine growth retardation. She had unilateral talipes equinovarus and unilateral renal agenesis. Her growth had improved to within the normal range by age three years. On examination, she has epicanthic folds, a flat midface and almond shaped eyes. While these characteristics are not frankly abnormal, they are significantly different from other relatives in her family.

Uniparental disomy for chromosome 16 has been previously identified in fetal deaths and newborn infants with limited follow-up. Thus there is a lack of information about the long-term effects of maternal uniparental disomy 16 on growth and development. We present a case of maternal heterodisomy for

Maternal uniparental disomy (UPD) for chromosome 14 (upd(14)mat) has been associated with a distinct phenotype. We describe the first case of maternal uniparental isodisomy for chromosome 14 detected prenatally, in a pregnancy with mosaicism for trisomy 14 observed in both a chorionic villus sample
