✦ Synopsis


Duplication 8p usually results in a syndrome characterized by profound mental retardation, mild facial anomalies, and malformations of hand, heart, and brain. We report on a large kindred segregating a Y;8 translocation in whom several individuals have duplication 8p22β†’8pter. These individuals have normal adaptive function despite their unbalanced karyotype. The family was studied with G-banding and fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) using probes to chromosomes 8 and Y. Comparison of this family with other reported cases defines a mild clinical outcome for trisomy 8p22β†’8pter in contrast to the severe findings when the duplication involves a longer, more proximal segment.

Chromosome analysis was performed in a 34-year-old man who was phenotypically normal except for oligoasthenozoospermia. In this patient, analysis of GTG-banded chromosomes showed in one chromosome 8 additional chromosomal material of unknown origin. To characterize the aberrant chromosome more preci

The number of patients heterozygous for terminal deletion of the short arm of chromosome 8 (del8p) has increased progressively in parallel with the improved ability of cytogenetic techniques to recognize small imbalances. A del(8p) syndrome has been outlined. We reported a consistent association wit
