Abstract
Partial trisomy 1q is a rare chromosomal disorder characterized by ventriculomegaly with craniofacial, renal, cardiac, and finger and toe anomalies. Most reported cases of partial trisomy1q have involved stillborn or premature deaths due to cardiac or liver failure. This case report describes an 18-month-old patient with partial duplication of the 1q32-44 segments and consequent developmental delays who exhibited improvement in developmental status with rehabilitation. Prenatal ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging of the mother revealed ventriculomegaly and atrophic changes in the left cerebral hemisphere of the fetus. The infant was born with micrognathia, microphthalmia, macrocephaly, low-set ears, polydactyly, and long feet at 37+5 weeks of gestation. A chromosomal study revealed an abnormal male karyotype of 46,XY,rec(1)dup(1)(q32.1q44)inv(1)(p36.3q32.1)pat. In this rare case of a patient with partial trisomy, we observed improvement in developmental delays following treatment using appropriate rehabilitation techniques. Further research is required to help validate the findings of this case study and establish a standardized rehabilitation technique that can be subsequently applied to such cases.

Abstract
Chromosomal abnormalities are the common genetic factors that significantly impact fertility, miscarriage possibility and abnormal offspring with unbalanced karyotype. Complex chromosomal rearrangements (CCRs) refer to structural rearrangements which involve more than two breakpoints and often more than two chromosomes. According to the mode of transmission, they can be either familial or de novo rearrangements. Here we report a complex chromosomal rearrangement leading to intellectual disability, speech delay and multiple dysmorphic features, including cleft lip and inguinal hernia. Proband karyotype shows 46,XY,ins (1::11) (q42→qter::q25) compatible to partial trisomy 1 q42→qter, while the karyotype of his mother was 45,XX, ins (1::15) (q42;q11.1→qter), t (1;11)(q42,q25) compatible to apparently normal female phenotype.

Abstract
RATIONALE Chromosomal rearrangements are the major cause of multiple congenital abnormalities and intellectual disability. PATIENT CONCERNS AND DIAGNOSIS We report 2 first cousins with unbalanced chromosomal aberrations of chromosomes 1 and 21, resulting from balanced familial translocation. Chromosome microarray analysis revealed 8.5 Mb1q43q44 duplication/21q22.2q22.3 deletion and 6.8 Mb 1q43q44 deletion/21q22.2q22.3 duplication. Among other features, cognitive and motor development delay and craniofacial anomalies are present in both patients, whereas congenital heart defect and hearing impairment is only present in patient carrying 1q43q44 duplication/21q22.2q22.3 deletion. LESSONS In this report, we provide detailed analysis of the phenotypic features of both patients as well as compare our data with previously published reports of similar aberrations and discuss possible functional effects of AKT3, CEP170, ZBTB18, DSCAM, and TMPRSS3 genes included in the deleted and/or duplicated regions. Partial trisomy 1q/monosomy 21q has only been reported once before, and this is the first report of partial monosomy 1q/trisomy 21q. The expressed phenotype of mirroring chromosomal aberrations in our patients supports the previous suggestion that the dosage effect of some of the genes included in deleted/duplicated regions may result in opposite phenotypes of the patients.

Abstract
De novo partial distal 1q trisomy is uncommon and mostly occurs in combination with monosomy of another chromosome due to a parental translocation. Distal 1q trisomy co-occurring with another de novo duplication on a separate chromosome is extremely rare. Here, we reported a patient carrying two large de novo interstitial duplications including a 20Mb duplication at 1q42-q44 and a 14.2Mb duplication at 9q21.12-q21.33. The patient presented with features of pre- and postnatal growth retardation, low birth weight, failure to thrive, developmental delay and frequent infection. Her dysmorphic features included macrocephaly, prominent forehead, triangular face, wide fontanelle, hypertelorism, flat nasal bridge, tented mouth, micrognathia, protruding and low-set ears, slender limbs with toe-walking appearance. In addition, she presented with subdural hematoma. The clinical presentations of this patient are mostly consistent with those of distal 1q trisomy syndrome or 9q interstitial duplication. The interstitial 1q trisomy may have contributed to the macrocephaly, prominent forehead and limb abnormalities of our patient. Either or both de novo duplications could have contributed to the features of growth retardation, developmental delay and dysmorphic features including hypertelorism, low-set ears and abnormal nose/nasal bridge.

Abstract
Copy Number Variations (CNVs) comprising the distal 1q region 1q43-q44 are associated with neurological impairments, structural brain disorder, and intellectual disability. Here, we report an extremely rare, de novo case of a 1q43-q44 deletion with an adjacent duplication, associated with severe seizures, microcephaly, agenesis of the corpus callosum, and pachygyria, a consequence of defective neuronal migration disorder. We conducted a literature survey to find that our patient is only the second case of such a 1q43-q44 CNV ever to be described. Our data support an association between 1q43-q44 deletions and microcephaly, as well as an association between 1q43-q44 duplications and macrocephaly. We compare and contrast our findings with previous studies reporting on critical 1q43-q44 regions and their constituent genes associated with seizures, microcephaly, and corpus callosum abnormalities [Ballif et al., 2012; Hum Genet 131:145-156; Nagamani et al., 2012; Eur J Hum Genet 20:176-179]. Taken together, our study reinforces the association between 1q43-q44 CNVs and brain disorder.

Trisomy 1q41-qter and monosomy 3p26.3-pter in a family with a translocation (1;3): further delineation of the syndromes. BMC Med Genomics 2014; 7:55. [PMID: 25223409 PMCID: PMC4170088 DOI: 10.1186/1755-8794-7-55] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2013] [Accepted: 09/10/2014] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Trisomy 1q and monosomy 3p deriving from a t(1;3) is an infrequent event. The clinical characteristics of trisomy 1q41-qter have been described but there is not a delineation of the syndrome. The 3p25.3-pter monosomy syndrome (MIM 613792) characteristics include low birth weight, microcephaly, psychomotor and growth retardation and abnormal facies. Case presentation A 2 years 8 months Mexican mestizo male patient was evaluated due to a trisomy 1q and monosomy 3p derived from a familial t(1;3)(q41;q26.3). Four female carriers of the balanced translocation and one relative that may have been similarly affected as the proband were identified. The implicated chromosomal regions were defined by microarray analysis, the patient had a trisomy 1q41-qter of 30.3 Mb in extension comprising about 240 protein coding genes and a monosomy 3p26.3-pter of 1.7 Mb including only the genes CNTN6 (MIM 607220) and CHL1 (MIM 607416), which have been implicated in dendrite development. Their contribution to the phenotype, regarding the definition of trisomy 1q41-qter and monosomy 3p26.3-pter syndromes are discussed. Conclusion We propose that a trisomy 1q41-qter syndrome should be considered in particular when the following characteristics are present: postnatal growth delay, macrocephaly, wide fontanelle, triangular facies, frontal bossing, thick eye brows, down slanting palpebral fissures, hypertelorism, flat nasal bridge, hypoplasic nostrils, long filtrum, high palate, microretrognathia, ear abnormalities, neural abnormalities (in particular ventricular dilatation), psychomotor developmental delay and mental retardation. Our patient showed most of these clinical characteristics with exception of macrocephaly, possibly due to a compensatory effect by haploinsufficiency of the two genes lost from 3p. The identification of carriers has important implications for genetic counseling as the risk of a new born with either a der(3) or der(1) resulting from an adjacent-1 segregation is of 25% for each of them, as the products of adjacent-2 or 3:1 segregations are not expected to be viable.

Abstract
Background Partial duplication 1q is a rare cytogenetic anomaly frequently associated to deletion of another chromosome, making it difficult to define the precise contribution of the different specific chromosomal segments to the clinical phenotype. Case presentation We report a clinical and cytogenomic study of a patient with multiple congenital anomalies, heart defect, neuromotordevelopment delay, intellectual disability, who presents partial trisomy 1q32 and partial monosomy 11q25 inherited from a paternal balanced translocation identified by chromosome microarray and fluorescence in situ hybridization. Conclusion Compared to patients from the literature, the patient’s phenotype is more compatible to the 1q32 duplication’s clinical phenotype, although some clinical features may also be associated to the deleted segment on chromosome 11. This is the smallest 11q terminal deletion ever reported and the first association between 1q32.3 duplication and 11q25 deletion in the literature.

Abstract
We report on a 26-month-old boy with an interstitial duplication of 2p22.3p22.2 and an interstitial deletion of 2q14.1q21.2. The abnormality was derived from his father having a balanced paracentric inversion and pericentric insertion. The deletion in the child was identified by cytogenetic analysis and characterized in more detail by molecular cytogenetics and array comparative genomic hybridization. The latter revealed a 20-Mb deletion in the long arm and a 5.6-Mb duplication in the short arm of chromosome 2. Fluorescence in situ hybridization in paternal chromosomes characterized an intrachromosomal insertion of 2q14.1q21.2 into 2p23; additionally a paracentric inversion of 2p13p23 was observed. The boy with the unbalanced karyotype suffered from severe psychomotor retardation, thrombophilia due to protein C deficiency, and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and also had phenotypic abnormalities. Most of these features have previously been described in individuals with interstitial deletion of 2q14.1.

Abstract
Pericentric chromosome inversions are often associated with infertility, recurrent pregnancy loss, and an increased risk for offspring with congenital anomalies. We report on a chromosome 1 inversion between 1p36.21 and 1q42.13, one of the largest described familial pericentric inversions of chromosome 1. The inversion was ascertained following the birth of a female with multiple congenital anomalies due to a recombinant chromosome 1. The inversion was subsequently detected or inferred in 16 healthy individuals over five generations. Interestingly, with a ratio of 16 carriers to 6 noncarriers, there appears to be transmission distortion of the inverted chromosome 1 within the family. Although there is no reported difficulty conceiving in the family, the risk of miscarriage is higher than predicted at 34% (13/38). The recurrence risk of a recombinant chromosome also appears to be lower than expected based on the mode of ascertainment. This case contributes to the spectrum of clinical features of chromosome 1 recombinants and raises the question of whether or not there is a selective advantage of the inverted chromosome at meiosis, conception, or post-zygotically that has contributed to transmission distortion of the inverted chromosome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To present molecular cytogenetic characterization of prenatally detected inverted duplication and deletion of 9p, or inv dup del(9p). MATERIALS, METHODS, AND RESULTS A 35-year-old primigravid woman underwent amniocentesis at 16 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age. Amniocentesis revealed a derivative chromosome 9, or der(9) with additional material at the end of the short arm of one chromosome 9. Parental karyotypes were normal. Level II ultrasound showed ventriculomegaly and normal male external genitalia. Repeated amniocentesis was performed at 20 weeks of gestation. Array comparative genomic hybridization revealed a 0.70-Mb deletion at 9p24.3 and an 18.36-Mb duplication from 9p24.3 to 9p22.1. The distal 9p deletion encompassed the genes of DOCK8, ANKRD15, FOXD4, DMRT1, and DMRT3. Fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis using bacterial artificial chromosome clone probes specific for 9p confirmed that the der(9) was derived from the inv dup del(9p). The karyotype of the fetus was 46,XY,inv dup del(9)(:p22.1-->p24.3::p24.3-->qter)dn or 46,XY,der(9) del(9)(p24.3) inv dup(9)(p22.1p24.3)dn. Polymorphic DNA marker analysis determined a maternal origin of the inv dup del(9p). A 512-g male fetus was subsequently terminated at 22 weeks of gestation with facial dysmorphism. The fetus had normal male external genitalia without sex reversal. CONCLUSION Fluorescence in situ hybridization and array comparative genomic hybridization are useful to determine the nature of a prenatally detected aberrant chromosome derived from the inv dup del. Male fetuses with inv dup del(9p) and haploinsufficiency of DMRT1 and DMRT3 may present normal male external genitalia without sex reversal.

Molecular techniques led to the discovery that several chromosome rearrangements interpreted as terminal duplications were in fact inverted duplications contiguous to terminal deletions. Inv dup del rearrangements originate through a symmetric dicentric chromosome that, after asymmetric breakage, generates an inv dup del and a deleted chromosome. In recurrent inverted duplications the dicentric chromosome is formed at meiosis through non-allelic homologous recombination. In non-recurrent inv dup del cases, dicentric intermediates are formed by non-homologous end joining or intrastrand annealing. Some authors hypothesized that in these cases the dicentric may have been formed directly in the zygote. Healing of the broken dicentric chromosomes can occur not only in a telomerase-dependent way but also through telomere capture and circularization thus creating translocated or ring inv dup del chromosomes. In all the cases reported up to now, the duplicated region was always longer than the deleted one, but we can safely assume that there is another group of rearrangements where the deleted region is longer than the duplicated portion. In general, in these cases, the cytogeneticist will suspect the presence of a deletion and confirm it by FISH with a subtelomeric probe, but he/she will almost certainly miss the duplication. It is likely that the conventional analysis techniques used until now have led to a substantial underestimate of the frequency of inv dup del rearrangements and that the widespread use of array-CGH in routine analysis will allow a more realistic estimate. Obviously, the concomitant presence of deletion and duplication has important consequences in genotype/phenotype correlations.

Abstract
Inverted duplications with terminal deletions have been reported for an increasing number of chromosome ends. The best characterized and most frequent rearrangement reported involves the short arm of chromosome 8. It derives from non-allelic homologous recombination (NAHR) between two inverted LCRs (low copy repeats) of the olfactory receptor (OR) gene cluster during maternal meiosis. We report here on the cytogenetic characterization of the first inversion duplication deletion involving the short arm of chromosome 20 (inv dup del 20p) in an 18-month-old boy presenting with clinical signs consistent with 20p trisomy syndrome. This abnormality was suspected on karyotyping, but high-resolution molecular cytogenetic investigations were required to define the breakpoints of the rearrangement and to obtain insight into the mechanism underlying its formation. The duplicated region was estimated to be 18.16 Mb in size, extending from 20p13 to 20p11.22, and the size of the terminal deletion was estimated at 2.02 Mb in the 20p13 region. No single copy region was detected between the deleted and duplicated segments. As neither LCR nor inversion was identified in the 20p13 region, the inv dup del (20p) chromosome abnormality probably did not arise by NAHR. The most likely mechanism involves a break in the 20p13 region, leading to chromosome instability and reparation by U-type exchange or end-to-end fusion.

Abstract
We report on two patients with de novo subtelomeric terminal deletion of chromosome 6p. Patient 1 is an 8-month-old female born with normal growth parameters, typical facial features of 6pter deletion, bilateral corectopia, and protruding tongue. She has severe developmental delay, profound bilateral neurosensory deafness, poor visual contact, and hypsarrhythmia since the age of 6 months. Patient 2 is a 5-year-old male born with normal growth parameters and unilateral hip dysplasia; he has a characteristic facial phenotype, bilateral embryotoxon, and moderate mental retardation. Further characterization of the deletion, using high-resolution array comparative genomic hybridization (array-CGH; Agilent Human Genome kit 244 K), revealed that Patient 1 has a 8.1 Mb 6pter-6p24.3 deletion associated with a contiguous 5.8 Mb 6p24.3-6p24.1 duplication and Patient 2 a 5.7 Mb 6pter-6p25.1 deletion partially overlapping with that of Patient 1. Complementary FISH and array analysis showed that the inv del dup(6) in Patient 1 originated de novo. Our results demonstrate that simple rearrangements are often more complex than defined by standard techniques. We also discuss genotype-phenotype correlations including previously reported cases of deletion 6p.

Abstract
We report on a 6-year-old boy referred for cytogenetics study. A few non-specific features were observed in the newborn: hypotonia, failure to thrive, seizures, pre-auricular skin tags. Cat-like cry was not identified. No remarkable facial dysmorphism, gastrointestinal, respiratory or cardiac abnormalities were identified. At age 4 years, speech and motor skill delays were apparent. Karyotyping and FISH analysis revealed a de novo rearranged chromosome 5p, with subtelomeric deletion of 5p and a duplication of the cri-du-chat critical region. Array CGH using sub-megabase resolution tiling-set (SMRT) array followed by FISH analysis with labeled BACs showed a deletion of 5pter to 5p15.31 (0-6.9 Mb) and an inverted duplication of the greater part of 5p15.31 to the distal end of 5p14.3 (6.9-19.9 Mb). Although very rare, inverted duplications with terminal deletion (inv dup del) have been reported at different chromosomal ends. Our finding adds a second patient of inv dup del 5p to this growing list, and the potential causative mechanisms for this rearrangement are discussed. Review of the mapping information of cri-du-chat patients and the comparison with a previously reported patient suggested that the critical region for cat-like cry is located within a 0.6 Mb region.

Abstract
Inverted duplications with terminal deletions have been reported in an increasing number of chromosomes and are probably more frequent than suspected until recently. We describe the cytogenetic and molecular characterization of an inverted duplication of chromosome 2p in an 8-year-old girl. Firstly interpreted as partial duplication 2p, the rearrangement was in fact an inverted duplication associated with a terminal deletion of the short arm of the rearranged chromosome 2, the latter not being detectable by cytogenetic analysis. The complete karyotype was: 46,XX,add(2)(p23)dn.ish inv dup del(2)(:p23.2-->p25.3::p25.3-->qter) (wcp2+,N-MYC++,2pter-)dn. We precisely define the extension of both the duplication and the deletion using bacterial artificial chromosomes clones spanning the regions. The size of the inverted duplicated segment was estimated to be 28 Mb, spanning from 2p23.2 to 2p25.3, and an approximately 1.6 Mb segment at 2pter-p25.3 was deleted in the abnormal chromosome. The physical findings noted in our patient include prominent forehead, hypertelorism, flat nasal bridge, and low-set and large ears. In addition, she had congenital heart defect and scoliosis. Her psychomotor development was severely delayed from the beginning. All these clinical features are the same as observed for the typical trisomy 2p23-pter syndrome. The phenotypic effects of the terminal deletion of 2p in addition to the trisomy are discussed. This is the third patient presenting with a severe clinical phenotype and a de novo inv dup del (2p).

Abstract
We report on a novel case of pure partial tandem duplication 1q42q43 confirmed by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). We compare the manifestations of our patient with similar cases previously reported. We conclude that the most common clinical manifestations of trisomy 1q42qter are prenatal and postnatal growth retardation, relative macrocephaly, triangular face, prominent forehead, broad nasal bridge, abnormal philtrum, micro/retrognathia, cardiac defects and mental retardation. We would like to emphasize the importance of the FISH technique in the identification of the duplicated segment.

Abstract
We report here on a 6-year-old boy referred to the laboratory for karyotyping and SHOX microdeletion testing. The most significant clinical findings in this boy were small stature, Madelung deformity, facial dysmorphism, mild mental retardation and behavioral problems. R-, G- and RTBG-banding chromosome analysis showed a normal male karyotype. Fine molecular characterization, by FISH, of terminal Xp microdeletion revealed an associated partial duplication. Further refinement of the molecular analysis indicated an inverted duplication of the Xp22.31-Xp22.32 (13.7 Mb) region including the STS, VCX-A and KAL1 genes, associated with a terminal Xp deletion Xp22.33-Xpter (3.6 Mb) encompassing the SHOX and ARSE genes. Such rearrangements have been characterized for other chromosomal pairs, but this is the first reported male patient involving the short arm of the X chromosome. Molecular analysis of the maternal and patient's microsatellite markers showed interchromatid mispairing leading to non-allelic homologous recombination to be the most likely mechanism underlying this rearrangement. This case highlights the importance of clinically driven FISH investigations in order to uncover cryptic micro-rearrangements.

Abstract
Molecular definition at the BAC level of an 8p dicentric chromosome and an 8p deleted chromosome is reported in a patient with two different cell lines. The dicentric, which differed from that generating the recurrent inv dup del(8p) for the location of its break point, originated during the paternal meiosis on the background of the classical 8p23.1 inversion polymorphism. The breakage of this dicentric gave rise to the 8p deleted chromosome which, as a result of the inversion, had two non-contiguous deletions. These findings confirm previous data on 1p distal deletions, showing that at least some of the deletions stem from the breakage of dicentric chromosomes. They suggest that non-contiguous deletions may be frequent among distal deletions. This type of rearrangement can easily be overlooked when two contiguous clones, one absent and the other present by FISH analysis, are taken as boundaries of the deletion break point; in this case only high resolution array-CGH will reveal their real frequency. The definition of such non-contiguous distal deletions is relevant for phenotype/karyotype correlations. There are historical examples of blunders caused by overlooking a second non-contiguous deletion. This paper shows how small scale structural variations, such as common polymorphic inversions, may cause complex rearrangements such as terminal deletions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To report a new case with partial trisomy 1p due to paternal t(1;9) translocation in a family with recurrent miscarriages. DESIGN Case report. SETTING Faculty of Medicine, Cukurova University. PATIENT(S) A couple with recurrent miscarriages, an abnormal fetus, a newborn infant, paternal grandfather and grandmother. INTERVENTION(S) Chorionic villi sampling (CVS), amniocentesis, lymphocytic karyotype, and genetic counseling. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S) Chromosomal analysis of CVS, amniotic cells, and peripheral blood lymphocytes were performed according to standard cytogenetic methods using G-banding technique. RESULT(S) We determined the reproductive risk in a couple who carried a balance and an unbalanced rearrangement of chromosomes 1 and 9 in two generations of a normal father with derivative 9 karyotype. The prenatal and postnatal karyotypes of the newborn infant were the same as the father [46,XY,der(9)t(1:9)(p34.2;q34.3)]. He was also phenotypically normal. The abnormal fetus that was miscarried also had a derivative 9 [46,XY,der(9)t(1:9)(p34.2;q34.3)fat]. The der(9) contained the partial short arm of chromosome 1. Both chromosome 1 showed normal. Trisomy 1p in the fetus was the result of familial derivative 9. CONCLUSION(S) Partial trisomy is associated with fetal wastage, and may play a role in the etiology of the other miscarriages in certain families. The apparent lack of increased reproductive failure may result from the selective disadvantage of aneusomic gamets at fertilization or very early spontaneous abortions of unbalanced conceptuses. The detection of couples with chromosomal anomalies can undoubtedly help prevent the births of malformed infants. These findings would be used widely in clinical genetics and as an effective tool for genetic counseling and reproductive guidance.

Abstract
In this report, we describe three unrelated patients with similar symptoms such as mental retardation, growth delay and multiple phenotypic abnormalities. GTG-banding analysis revealed karyotypes with add(1p) in two cases and an add(1q) in the third. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis using high resolution multicolor banding (MCB) characterized the aberrations of the abnormal chromosomes 1 as a (sub)terminal duplication and inverted duplications, respectively. Although three different chromosomal regions i.e. 1p36.1, 1p36.2-->1p31.3 and 1q41-->1q44 were involved, all three patients had similar patterns of dysmorphic findings. These cases demonstrate the power of MCB in the characterization of small interstitial chromosomal aberrations and resulted in the characterization of three previously unreported congenital chromosome 1 rearrangements.

Abstract
Chromosome duplications are found in about 2% of subjects with a typical chromosomal phenotype but their frequency is likely to be higher, as suggested by the first array-CGH data. According to the orientation of the duplicated segment, duplications may be in tandem or inverted. The latter are usually associated with a distal deletion. We studied a de novo 2.3 Mb inverted duplication of 8q24.3 without apparently associated deletion in a subject with profound psychomotor retardation, idiopathic epilepsy and growth delay. In spite of its small size, the presence of the rearrangement was suspected on standard karyotypes (approximately 400 bands) and later confirmed by Fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis. We hypothesize that the GRINA gene, a glutamate binding subunit of NMDA receptor ion channel lying within the duplicated segment, may be responsible for the epilepsy. This paper confirms that small subtelomeric de novo duplications may be responsible for mental retardation, facial dysmorphisms and/or congenital malformations, although their presence may be overlooked by FISH analysis.

Abstract
A girl presented with a phenotype including neonatal hypotonia, psychomotor retardation, mental retardation, short stature, and facial dysmorphism. She demonstrated common features of both 14q31-qter duplication and terminal 14q deletion. She had undergone surgery for patent ductus arteriosus and pyloric stenosis in infancy. Her karyotype was 46,XX,der(14) dup(14)(q32.3 q31.3)del(14)(q32.3). Molecular cytogenetic analysis showed a paternally derived 14q31.3-q32.3 duplication and a terminal 14q deletion and led to the correlations between a particular genotype and phenotype. This is the first description of a deletion and inverted duplication of 14q, and adds 14q to the growing list of the inverted duplication associated with a terminal deletion.

Abstract
The best-known situation indissolubly linked to mosaicism is the uniparental disomy where a trisomic or monosomic zygote develops at least one cell line with 46 chromosomes. The mosaicism normal/abnormal cell lines may remain confined to placenta or persist in the embryo. Here, we describe a second situation that might also be indissolubly linked to a mosaic condition or at least to a confined placental mosaicism. We analysed the case of a mosaicism del(8p)/inv dup(8p) found in prenatal diagnosis. We had already demonstrated that the first product of the abnormal meiotic recombination at the basis of the inv dup rearrangements is a dicentric chromosome. Its breakage leads to the formation of a deleted and an inv dup chromosome. Although we had previously assumed that the dicentric underwent a breakage at meiosis II so that the zygote inherited the inv dup chromosome, our findings and those of others indeed indicate that the dicentric may be inherited in the zygote and that it might persist as such in early postzygotic stages, then undergoing different breakages in different cells leading to different abnormal chromosomes, either deleted or duplicated. Selection versus the most viable cell line(s) results either in a confined placental mosaicism with the inv dup cell line as the only one present in the embryo or in children with both the deleted and the inv dup cell lines. Phenotype/karyotype relationships in inv dup rearrangements must also take into account the influence of the other abnormal cell line during embryogenesis.

Abstract
An infant boy presented with trigonocephaly, mild craniofacial features, a small VSD, open ductus Botalli (ODB), bilateral hip dysplasia, psychomotor retardation, and hypotonia. The karyotype was 46,XY,del(4)(q34). Unexpectedly, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) studies revealed not only a deletion but also a duplication. The deletion extends from 4qter to 4q34.3 and the duplication from 4q32.3 to q34.3. This is the first description of a deletion inverted duplication 4q. Possible mechanisms we can envision by which this deletion/duplication arose could be a U-type exchange causing end-to-end fusion or a two step event with a paracentric inversion and subsequent cross-over in the inverted segment. This observation suggests that the karyotype of patients with a 4q deletion should be confirmed by molecular cytogenetics.

Abstract
An 8-year-old girl with a combination of clinical manifestations of partial duplication 4p and the Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome was studied. Chromosomal G-banding and FISH analyses showed a 33.2-Mb segment of inverted duplication at 4p14-p16.3 and a 2.8-Mb segment of deletion at 4p16.3-pter (including the Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome critical region). The chromosomes of the parents were normal. Her karyotype was thus 46,XX, inv dup del(4)(:p14 --> p16.3::p16.3 --> qter) de novo. The inverted duplication deletion was assumed to have arisen through chromatid breakage at 4p16.3, U-type reunion at the breakpoints to produce a dicentric intermediate, breakage of the dicentric to result in a monocentric, and telomere capture/healing of the broken end. Olfactory receptor gene clusters at 4p16.3 were ruled out as an intermediary of the duplication deletion process.
