โœฆ Synopsis


A newborn infant was referred because of low-set ears, mild downward slant of the palpebral fissues, micrognathia with higharched palate, a flat midface, small mouth, and thin upper lip with cupid bow configuration. To some extent her cry resembled that associated with cri du chat syndrome.

Cytogenetic findings with Gand Q-banding alone failed to characterize precisely the complex translocations. By the chromosome in situ suppression (CISS) hybridization technique using whole chromosome specific probes, a complex 4 breakpoint rearrangement involving both arms of a single chromosome 1 with the long arms of chromosomes 5 and 11 was disclosed, i.e., 46,XX, der(l),t(l;5) t(1;ll) (5qter+ 5q31::lp31.3+ lq44::llq23+ 11 qter;5pter+5q31::

We describe the case of an 8-month-old girl with achondroplasia-hypochondroplasia complex. The diagnosis was suggested antenatally when obstetrical ultrasonography at 27 weeks of gestation showed short limbs, small chest, and macrocephaly. The father has achondroplasia due to the common G1138A (G380

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) using chromosome-specific plasmid libraries and chromosome region-specific DNA markers allowed the characterization of a t( 1022; I I ) (p I I .2;q I2;q24) in a Ewing's sarcoma (ES). This study illustrates the usefulness of molecular cytogenetic analysis of
