Two sibs with partial trisomy-5p are reported. Their father is the carrier of a balanced translocation 46,XY,t(4q+;5p-). Twelve cases of partial trisomy-5p--including our two patients--have been reported. The most common abnormalities found were mental retardation, short stature, dolichocephaly, pro

β¦ Synopsis
A case of trisomy 6p21 leads to 6pter resulting from a maternal balanced t(2;6)(p25;p21) translocation is reported. The main clinical abnormalities were psychomotor retardation, hypotrophy, blepharophimosis, nystagmus, high nasal bridge, small mouth, sacral dimple, and systolic murmur. Other anomalies might have been due to partial 2p monosomy. Comparison with seven other cases of trisomy 6p allowed the delineation of a clinical entity. Direct proof of the localization of HLA genes was given by the presence of three haplotypes in the index patient.

It is reported on a boy of 4 years 9 months with trisomy of the distal part of the short arm of a chromosome 10, due to a balanced 7/10 translocation in the father. Besides multiple minor dysmorphias the patient showed severe mental retardation, small stature, hypotonia, retarded bone age. The high
Cytogenetic findings in a case of partial trisomy 6p due to a translocation t(6;20)(p21;p13) and eleven balanced translocation heterozygotes are described. The clinical data of the proposita are compared with those of five other published cases. A partial trisomy 6p syndrome is postulated, character
A de novo interstitial tandem duplication of 6p12p21.3 was observed in a 7-month-old boy with growth retardation, psychomotor delay and craniofacial, brain, limb, and genital anomalies. Fluorescent in situ hybridization using a chromosome 6 paint probe demonstrated that the extra material belonged t
A newborn infant with the clinical features of the Patau syndrome was found to have excess chromosome 13 material present as a tandem translocation involving the short arm of chromosome 6 and the long arm of an extra chromosome 13: 46,XY,t(6;13)(p24;q12). The major part of the long arm of the extra
