## Abstract Prenatal diagnosis of trisomy 7 is complex due to only a few reported cases. We report here on a stillborn boy with very large duplication of 7q11.22βββqter, encompassing almost the entire long arm of chromosome 7. Ultrasound, fetal and parental chromosome banding, fluorescence in situ
We present a case of maternal uniparental heterodisomy for chromosome 2 (UPD 2) detected after trisomy 2 mosaicism was found on placental biopsy. This case presented prenatally with severe intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and oligohydramnios. The diploid newborn had hypospadias and features co
We report the prenatal diagnosis of partial trisomy 3p(3p23<pter) and monosomy 7q(7q36<qter) in a fetus with microcephaly, alobar holoprosencephaly and cyclopia. A 26-year-old primigravida woman was referred for genetic counselling at 23 gestational weeks due to sonographic findings of intra-uterine
