Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present prenatal diagnosis of terminal 2q deletion and distal 10q duplication of paternal origin in a fetus associated with increased nuchal translucency and abnormal maternal serum screening results. CASE REPORT A 26-year-old woman who had experienced spontaneous abortion twice underwent amniocentesis at 16 weeks of gestation because of an increased nuchal translucency thickness of 3.5 mm at 12 weeks of gestation and abnormal maternal serum screening results of 2.573 multiples of the median (MoM) of free β-human chorionic gonadotrophin (β-hCG) and 1.536 MoM of pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) resulting in a trisomy 21 risk of 1:64. Amniocentesis revealed a derivative chromosome 2. Simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes revealed arr [hg19] 2q37.3 (238,294,223-242,782,258) × 1, 10q24.31q26.3 (102,018,246-135,426,386) × 3. Cytogenetic analysis of parental bloods revealed a karyotype of 46,XX in the mother and a karyotype of 46,XY,t(2;10)(q37.3;q24.3) in the father. The fetal karyotype was 46,XX,der(2)t(2;10)(q37.3;q24.3)pat. The pregnancy was terminated at 20 weeks of gestation, and a malformed fetus was delivered with facial dysmorphism. Postnatal analysis of the cord blood confirmed the results of prenatal diagnosis. The fetus had a 4.693-Mb deletion of 2q37.3 encompassing the genes of HDAC4, KIF1A, PASK, HDLBP, FARP2 and D2HGDH, and a 33.34-Mb duplication of 10q24.31-q26.3 encompassing the gene of NFκB2. CONCLUSION First-trimester ultrasound and maternal serum biochemistry screening may help to identify an unexpected unbalanced familial translocation at prenatal diagnosis.

Distal trisomy 10q syndrome, report of a patient with duplicated q24.31 - qter, autism spectrum disorder and unusual features. Clin Case Rep 2014; 2:201-5.

Abstract
Key Clinical Message We report on a patient with distal trisomy 10q syndrome presenting with a few previously undescribed physical features, as well as, autism spectrum disorder (ASD). We recommend that patients with distal trisomy 10q syndrome should have a behavioral evaluation for ASD for the early institution of therapy.

The 2q37-deletion syndrome: an update of the clinical spectrum including overweight, brachydactyly and behavioural features in 14 new patients. Eur J Hum Genet 2012; 21:602-12. [PMID: 23073310 DOI: 10.1038/ejhg.2012.230] [Citation(s) in RCA: 63] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
The 2q37 locus is one of the most commonly deleted subtelomeric regions. Such a deletion has been identified in >100 patients by telomeric fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis and, less frequently, by array-based comparative genomic hybridization (array-CGH). A recognizable '2q37-deletion syndrome' or Albright's hereditary osteodystrophy-like syndrome has been previously described. To better map the deletion and further refine this deletional syndrome, we formed a collaboration with the Association of French Language Cytogeneticists to collect 14 new intellectually deficient patients with a distal or interstitial 2q37 deletion characterized by FISH and array-CGH. Patients exhibited facial dysmorphism (13/14) and brachydactyly (10/14), associated with behavioural problems, autism or autism spectrum disorders of varying severity and overweight or obesity. The deletions in these 14 new patients measured from 2.6 to 8.8 Mb. Although the major role of HDAC4 has been demonstrated, the phenotypic involvement of several other genes in the deleted regions is unknown. We further refined the genotype-phenotype correlation for the 2q37 deletion. To do this, we examined the smallest overlapping deleted region for candidate genes for skeletal malformations (facial dysmorphism and brachydactyly), overweight, behavioural problems and seizures, using clinical data, a review of the literature, and the Manteia database. Among the candidate genes identified, we focus on the roles of PRLH, PER2, TWIST2, CAPN10, KIF1A, FARP2, D2HGDH and PDCD1.

Abstract
Analysis of the literature showed that hypoplasia (or aplasia) of tibiae was found at least in six persons with trisomy 10q25.2-qter. Therefore, these defects should be considered as a characteristic manifestation of the distal trisomy 10q. In most of these patients, tibial abnormalities were associated with other defects of the lower extremities (hypoplastic femora, ectrodactyly, preaxial polydactyly). Upper limbs were affected in one patient (as well as in her sib without tibial defects). Most likely, segment 10q25.2-qter contains a gene which (when triplicated) leads to maldevelopment of the limbs, and tibial malformations are only one manifestation of this field defect.
