β¦ Synopsis
We describe a girl with some manifestations of the dup (9p) syndrome. High-resolution Giemsa-banded karyotype of her lymphocytes documented that she was mosaic with 80% of cells being 46,XX, and 20% 46,XX,-20, + der(%O;?) (p13;?). The additional material on 20p could not be defined clearly hy high-resolution Giemsa banding, as the banding pattern appeared consistent with either distal 9p or distal 13q. In order to make a definitive cytogenetic diagnosis, we used fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with a chromosome 9 specific DNA lilbrary to establish that the origin of the additional chromosomal material on chromosome 20 was from 9p. FISH used in this situation enabled us to counsel the family specifically regarding the prog nosis and manifestatioins of distal 9p duplication.

We describe a case of full monosomy 21 which was prenatally diagnosed in chorionic villi by fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH). Because of intrauterine fetal death, a curettage was performed and cytogenetic analysis of skin fibroblasts confirmed the presence of monosomy 21 in fetal cells. DNA
We describe a de novo dup 17p11 in a boy with Alport syndrome, mild mental retardation, and minor anomalies. Combining classical and molecular cytogenetics analyses, the karyotype was defined as 46,XY.ish dup (17)(p11.2p11.2)(D17S29++,D17S379+). Alport syndrome is associated with mutations in the ty
A loss of chromosome-9 material is one of the most frequent genomic aberrations known in bladder cancer. In order to better understand the role of chromosome-9 losses in bladder cancer, I25 formalin-fixed and 37 unfixed bladder tumors were examined using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). A
