Abstract
Complex chromosome rearrangements (CCR) involving multiple breaks in two chromosomes are rare. The detection of a four-break apparently balanced rearrangement involving chromosomes 1 and 3 in a child with developmental delay led us to reanalyse, using prometaphase banding, another complex two-chromosome rearrangement in a previously reported case (Fitzgerald 1974). The relationship between clinical abnormalities and apparently balanced rearrangements is discussed.

Abstract
The role of human chromosome 8 in genetic disease together with the current status of the genetic linkage map for this chromosome is reviewed. Both hereditary genetic disease attributed to mutant alleles at gene loci on chromosome 8 and neoplastic disease owing to somatic mutation, particularly chromosomal translocations, are discussed.

Abstract
An 8-year-old boy with the features of Langer-Giedion syndrome except for short stature is described. Chromosome analysis using high resolution G-banding techniques revealed an interstitial deletion of the long arm of chromosome 8:46,XY,del(8)(q24.13-q24.22).

Abstract
Congenital complex chromosome rearrangements (CCR) compatible with life are rare in man. Thus patients with CCR usually present considerable diagnostic difficulties both clinically and cytogenetically. We studied a 12-year-old mentally retarded male with minor congenital anomalies as described below and his first-degree relatives. The propositus had an unbalanced karyotype with eight break points and seven derivative chromosomes; two deletions, del(6) (q25----qter) and del(14) (q31----qter), and four translocations, t(2;11), t(5;15), t(6;11), t(6;20) were present. Parental chromosomes were normal; however, the mother had a few metaphases with abnormal chromosomes suggestive of chromosome instability. These findings and a review of reported patients with CCR are presented with regard to speculations about etiology, pathogenesis, phenotypic expression, and prognosis. Physicians should be aware of CCR and broader indications for cytogenetic studies appear warranted in view of these data.

Abstract
A case of interstitial deletion of the long arm of chromosome 8 is reported. A chromosome analysis by a high resolution banding revealed the abnormal karyotype, 46, XY, del (8) (q11.2q13). Although some reports describe an association of 8q deletion with the Langer-Giedion syndrome, this patient did not have the typical features of this syndrome. It was noted that the patient had amino aciduria, EEG and ECG abnormalities together with other pathological findings.

Abstract
We report on a patient with the Tricho-Rhino-Phalangeal syndrome (TRPS) with normal mentation, without exostoses and with a partial microdeletion of 8q23. Although she had the phenotypic characteristics of TRPS Type I, karyotypic analysis demonstrated the 8q-microdeletion usually associated with TRPS Type II, in which exostoses are present. Our patient represents the second reported instance of this phenotypic chromosomal association and provides further evidence for homogeneity of the TRPS.

Abstract
We report a boy with a trichorhinophalangeal syndrome (TRP syndrome), severe mental retardation, and transient megacephaly, whose karyotype showed complex, apparently balanced, translocations with breakpoints in bands 3q13, 8p22, 8q13, 11p12, and 11q21. The fact that cases presenting with phenotypes corresponding to the TRP II syndrome and deletions of the long arm of chromosome 8 have been recently reported prompted us to report this case to help in the clarification of the possible relation between 8q chromosomal mutation and the aetiology of TRP syndromes.

Abstract
A 10-month-old infant with failure to thrive, delayed development, mild dysmorphia, cardiac anomalies, and cryptorchidism was referred for cytogenetic evaluation. Routine GTG-banded analysis revealed a modal number of 46 chromosomes, which contained an obvious complex rearrangement involving chromosomes 1, 8, and 14. Parental chromosomes were normal. Following high resolution techniques, this de novo rearrangement demonstrated an intraband deletion and was designated as [46,XY,t(1;8;14)(1pter----1p13.1::14q12----14pter++ +;1qter----1p13.1::8q24.13----8qter; 14qter----14q12::8p23.3----8q24.11:)]. Although deletions have been implicated as possibly responsible for abnormal phenotypes in patients with de novo "balanced rearrangements", in most cases, they could not be demonstrated. The present case is only the second instance documenting a subtle intraband deletion in association with a complex translocation. Fourteen of the reported 18 patients with an 8q deletion (including this infant) have Langer-Giedion syndrome, suggesting an etiologic relationship. However, the same deletion is not present in all cases.

Abstract
Critical cytogenetic (re)evaluation of 2 of our own cases of tricho-rhino-phalangeal syndrome II (TRP II), or Langer-Giedion syndrome (LGS), and 10 cases from the literature, suggests that the shortest region of overlap of the 8q deletion is a part of band q24.1. This region is assumed to be causally related to this syndrome, and possibly also to TRP I syndrome which, therefore, may not be a causally separate entity.

Abstract
We report on four patients with tricho-rhino-phalangeal syndrome with exostoses (TRPSE) who were not mentally retarded and review 32 previously published cases. These data enable more complete delineation of the phenotype and document the variability of the clinical and radiographic manifestations. Information on the genetics and the association with del(8q) is discussed, as are management and avenues for further investigation. The apparent variability of intelligence in TRPSE patients together with the high incidence of other problems, including significant delay in speech development and hearing loss, make systematic multidisciplinary evaluation and long-term treatment necessary to achieve the best outcome.
