We report a liveborn infant with severe intrauterine growth retardation and renal failure, delivered following detection of non-mosaic trisomy 2 by chorionic villus biopsy in the first trimester. Detailed analysis post-delivery indicated apparent complete trisomy 2 of the chorionic tissues, with a c
We report on a maternal uniparental disomy of chromosome 22 in a patient with severe intra-uterine growth retardation. Karyotyping of a placental tissue revealed non-mosaic trisomy 22, whereas lymphocyte chromosomes from the newborn were normal 46,XY. Microsatellite analysis using DNA extracted from
Confined placental mosaicism for trisomy 2 with intrauterine growth retardation and severe oligohydramnios in the absence of uniparental disomy in the fetus
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
