We report the prenatal diagnosis at 30 weeks of gestation of a del(8)(p21.3-->pter) in a growth-retarded fetus with an unbalanced atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD) and a hypoplastic right ventricle. This observation further confirms the association of AVSD with terminal deletions of chromosome 8
Here we describe a fetus in whom a cystic hygroma was detected by ultrasound during the second trimester. Autopsy demonstrated a female fetus with manifestations of Ullrich-Turner syndrome, including gonadal dysgenesis, generalized lymphedema, and preductal aortic coarctation. Surprisingly, the kary
Prenatal diagnosis of Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy (DMD) is performed as a routine procedure in many laboratories. The major potential problem is an incorrect diagnosis that could be obtained due to contamination with maternal tissue. We report a case of mosaicism of the X-chromosomes conf
## Abstract We observed a boy with short stature, chondrodysplasia punctata, ichthyosis, and a terminal deletion of Xp. Steroid sulfatase deficiency was demonstrated in the patient's fibroblasts. Molecular analysis showed a deletion of the entire steroid sulfatase gene. This case represents another
