✦ Synopsis


A cytogenetic survey and follow-up studies were performed in eight cases of full, mosaic, and pseudomosaic trisomy 9 prenatally diagnosed among 36 213 prenatal samples in our department between August 1970 and July 1996. Besides conventional chromosome analysis, interphase fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) was employed. FISH turned out to be a rapid and accurate method for verification of trisomy cell lines and could provide additional information to the prenatal cytogenetic results. FISH also enables the study of uncultured specimens of amniotic fluid, not accessible for traditional cytogenetic analysis. In three cases, retrospective DNA analysis showed the supernumerary chromosome 9 to be of maternal origin. The disomic cell lines in both mosaic trisomy 9 cases showed maternal uniparental disomy.

## Abstract Since 1985, we have provided coordinated DNA‐based and cytogenetic prenatal analysis for couples at risk for offspring afflicted with the fragile X [fra(X)] syndrome. To date, 40 pregnancies have been studied (22 males, 18 females). There were 5 males and 3 females identified to be at h

Trisomy 9 is a relatively rare chromosomal abnormality. There have been no reports of first trimester ultrasound findings associated with mosaic or nonmosaic trisomy 9 in the literature. A case of nonmosaic trisomy 9 diagnosed prenatally with ultrasound findings at 11.7 weeks gestation is presented

This study is a prospective clinical trial with fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) as a "routine" test for prenatal detection of the most common aneuploidies in high-risk pregnancies. Since April 1996, FISH studies with multicolor, commercially available, specific probes for chromosomes 13, 18
