Trisomy 22 Mosaicism from Prenatal to Postnatal Findings: A Case Series and Systematic Review of the Literature. Genes (Basel) 2024; 15:346. [PMID: 38540405 PMCID: PMC10970670 DOI: 10.3390/genes15030346] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2024] [Revised: 02/28/2024] [Accepted: 03/04/2024] [Indexed: 06/14/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Among aneuploidies compatible with life, trisomy 22 mosaicism is extremely rare, and only about 25 postnatal and 18 prenatal cases have been described in the literature so far. The condition is mainly characterized by facial and body asymmetry, cardiac heart defects, facial dysmorphisms, growth failure, delayed puberty, and variable degrees of neurodevelopmental delay. PROBLEM The scattered information regarding the condition and the dearth of data on its natural history and developmental outcomes restrict genetic counseling, particularly in prenatal settings. Moreover, a prompt diagnosis is frequently delayed by the negative selection of trisomic cells in blood, with mosaicism percentage varying among tissues, which often entails the need for further testing. Purpose/topic: The aim of our work is to provide assistance in prenatal and postnatal genetic counseling by systematically delineating the current knowledge of the condition. This entails defining the prenatal and postnatal characteristics of the condition and presenting novel data from three cases, both prenatally and postnatally. Additionally, we report the developmental outcomes observed in two new patients.

Nardelli A, Laskoski LV, Luiz AF, Silveira MAD, d'Arce LPG. Occurrence of mosaic trisomy 22 and pericentric inversion of chromosome 9 in a patient with a good prognosis. BMC Med Genomics 2023; 16:286. [PMID: 37957608 PMCID: PMC10644605 DOI: 10.1186/s12920-023-01709-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2023] [Accepted: 10/19/2023] [Indexed: 11/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Complete trisomy 22 is a rare chromosomal condition that is incompatible with life. However, mosaic trisomy 22 usually has prolonged survival compatibility and may present a good prognosis depending on the tissues affected. Herein, we described a male patient with the occurrence of mosaic trisomy 22 associated with the inversion of chromosome 9, with karyotype 47, XY, inv (9) (p11q13), + 22 [5] / 46, XY, inv(9) (p11q13) [45] and arr 22q11.1 ~ q13.33(16,417008-51,219,009)x2 ~ 3. It is not possible to infer, in general, the clinical characteristics associated with mosaic trisomy 22. However, the patient presented common clinical features observed in reported cases (in parentheses the percentage observed comparing all reported cases): facial dysmorphia (100%), delay in motor development/growth (82%), cardiac abnormalities (73%), ear abnormalities (55%) and facial and/or body asymmetry (55%), in addition to hypotonia, skin spots, hypoplastic nails. Given the survival and quality of life associated with multidisciplinary treatment, it can be concluded that the patient has a good prognosis. Conclusively, we're presenting the occurrence of mosaic trisomy 22 and chromosome 9 inversion in the patient with favorable prognosis. Thus, this study proposed a guide which should be inserted in databases of rare genetic conditions to help genetic counselors define mosaic trisomy 22 diagnosis.

J Clin Lab Anal 2018; 33:e22663.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Trisomy 22 mosaicism is a rare autosomal anomaly with survival compatibility. Recognition of the complete trisomy 22 which is incompatible with life from the mosaic form is critical for genetic counseling. Affected mosaic cases have prevalent clinical presentations such as webbed neck, developmental delay, abnormal ears, cardiac disorders, and microcephaly. Phenotype of these patients is milder than full chromosomal aneuploidy, and the severity of the phenotype depends on the count of trisomic cells. We describe a 4-year-old boy with mosaic trisomy 22 from healthy parents and no family history of any genetic disorders in the pedigree. METHOD AND RESULTS The patient had determined dysmorphic clinical features including facial asymmetry, cleft palate, gastroenteritis, hydronephrosis, developmental delay, genital anomalies, dysplastic toenails, flattened nasal bridge, congenital heart defect, hearing loss, cryptorchidism, and hypotonic muscle. He is the first reported with hypothyroidism and larynx wall thickness in worldwide and the first with atrial septal defect (ASD) from Iran. Chromosomal analyses using G-banding indicated a de novo Mos 47,XY,+22(6)/46,XY(44) karyotype with no other chromosomal structural changes. CONCLUSIONS Our observations confirm the importance of cytogenetic analyses for determining the cause of congenital anomalies and provide a useful genetic counseling. In addition, due to the fact that some of mosaic trisomy 22 features are unavoidable such as CHD and general hypotrophy, we suggest including echocardiography test for early diagnosis during the clinical assessment.

Abstract
Mosaic trisomy 22 is rare, but can be compatible with prolonged life. Patients with mosaic trisomy 22 usually present with intrauterine growth retardation, mental retardation, failure to thrive, and craniofacial asymmetry. We report the case of a five-year-old boy who had a birth weight of 3.8 kg and normal developmental milestones. He presented with unilateral ocular manifestations of ptosis, double elevator palsy, high myopia, and choroidal coloboma involving the macula. Cytogenetic evaluation showed a low level of trisomy 22 in peripheral blood lymphocytes (1 in 100) and in cultured fibroblasts from a conjunctival biopsy of the affected eye (1 in 60). Our case demonstrates the value of chromosomal analysis of the tissues involved rather than just karyotyping of the blood lymphocytes to detect mosaicism in patients with localised and unilateral congenital malformations.
