A case of prenatally diagnosed partial trisomy 8 is described. The 'syndrome' is associated with skeletal and cardiac anomalies, as well as hepatic calcification. Differing proportions of 47,XY,+der(8) and 46 XY were present in the different fetal tissues sampled. The highest proportion of 47,XY,+de
Maternal uniparental disomy 15 (UPD15), responsible for approximately 25 per cent of Prader-Willi syndrome cases, is usually caused by maternal meiosis I non-disjunction associated with advanced maternal age. These cases may initially be detected as mosaic trisomy 15 during routine prenatal diagnost
## Abstract Trisomy 16 mosaicism detected at midtrimester amniocentesis is rare and indicative of true fetal mosaicism. We report a case of mosaic trisomy 16 diagnosed by amniocentesis in which the sonographic findings included fetal pulmonary artery stenosis, a single umbilical artery, and early o
Trisomy 22 mosaicism diagnosed at 20 weeks' gestation by amniocentesis in a 35-year-old woman was not confirmed by fetal blood sampling. Subsequent fetal skin biopsy revealed trisomy 22 in 7 of the 15 fibroblasts analysed. We conclude that, depending on the chromosome involved, fetal skin biopsy sho
