We report on a mother and daughter both with a 45,X/46,X,r(X)(p22. 3q28) karyotype and mental retardation. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and microsatellite analyses for 14 loci/region at Xp22.3 and seven loci/region at Xq28 indicated that the ring X chromosome was missing a roughly 12-Mb

β¦ Synopsis
Ring X chromosomes that do not undergo inactivation may cause malformations and mental retardation. We report on a fetus with anencephaly, total dorsal rachischisis, and diaphragmatic hernia that was found to have a mosaic 45,X/46,X,r(X)(p11.22q12) karyotype. Fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) confirmed that the ring chromosome was X-derived. This report expands the phenotypic spectrum of mosaic monosomy X and small ring X chromosomes. Am.

We report on a 5-year-old girl with multiple congenital anomalies, developmental delay, and a de novo unbalanced translocation between chromosomes X and 1[46,X,der(X)-t(X;1)(q24;q31.1)] resulting in partial trisomy 1q and partial monosomy Xq. The karyotype shows inactivation of the abnormal X chromo
45,X/46,X,idic(Yq) mosaicism is associated with a variety of sex phenotypes, including Ullrich-Turner syndrome (UTS), intersexuality, and complete male. It remains unclear whether the phenotypic variability results from a dilutional effect by the 45,X cell line in the primordial gonad or an abnormal
We report on an 18-month-old girl with multiple congenital anomalies (prominence of the metopic suture, fine hair, club foot, absence of the 12th rib, brachydactyly) and severe mental retardation. The funduscopic examination showed diffuse retinal hypopigmentation. Brain magnetic resonance image (MR
We report on two sets of monozygotic twins (MZTs) discordant for phenotypic sex ascertained at birth when the female twin was noted to have signs of the Ullrich-Turner syndrome. Cytogenetic investigations on the female of the first pair showed 45,X/ 46,XY mosaicism in lymphocytes but fibroblasts gro
