Abstract
Chromosomal inversion is closely related to male infertility. Inversion carriers may produce abnormal gametes, which may lead to partial duplication/deletion of the embryonic chromosome and result in spontaneous abortion, a fetus with multiple anomalies, or birth of a malformed child. Genetic counselling remains challenging for these carriers in clinical practice. We report two male carriers with inversion of chromosome 10 and review 26 reported cases. In the first case, 46,XX,inv(10)(p13q22) of the fetal chromosome was found in prenatal diagnosis; this was inherited from the paternal side with 46XY,inv(10)(p13q22). Another case was a male carrier with inv(10)(q21.2q22.1). There have been 25 (89.3%) cases of pericentric inversion and three (10.7%) cases of paracentric inversion involving chromosome 10. Of 28 cases, nine were associated with pregestational infertility of the couples, while the other 19 cases were associated with gestational infertility of the couples or normozoospermia. The breakpoints at 10p15, 10p11, 10q11, and 10q21 were associated with pregestational infertility of the couples. The breakpoints at 10p15, 10p14, 10p13, 10p12, 10p11, 10q11, 10q21, 10q22, 10q23, 10q24, 10q25, and 10q26 were related to gestational infertility of the couples or normozoospermia. Although there is a high risk of infertility or recurrent miscarriages, carriers with inversion of chromosome 10 might produce healthy offspring. Natural pregnancy can be used as a choice for inversion carriers with recurrent spontaneous abortion.

Prenatal diagnosis and molecular cytogenetic characterization of rec(10)dup(10p)inv(10)(p11.2q26.3) in a fetus associated with paternal pericentric inversion. Taiwan J Obstet Gynecol 2017; 55:733-737.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present prenatal diagnosis and molecular cytogenetic characterization of a recombinant chromosome 10 in a fetus associated with a paternal pericentric inversion. CASE REPORT A 35-year-old woman underwent amniocentesis at 18 weeks of gestation because of an advanced maternal age. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 46,XY,der(10)del(10) (q26.3)dup(10)(p11.2p15). She underwent repeat amniocentesis at 21 weeks of gestation and array comparative genomic hybridization revealed a 31.65-Mb duplication of chromosome 10p15.3-p11.22 and a 3.07-Mb deletion of chromosome 10q26.3. Prenatal ultrasound findings were unremarkable. She was referred for genetic counseling and cytogenetic analysis revealed a karyotype of 46,XY,inv(10)(p11.2q26.3) in the father and a karyotype of 46,XX in the mother. The pregnancy was subsequently terminated, and a fetus was delivered with prominent facial dysmorphism. Postnatal cytogenetic analysis of the placenta revealed a karyotype of 46,XY, rec(10)dup(10p)inv(10)(p11.2q26.3). Fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis revealed a duplication of terminal 10p and a deletion of terminal 10q in the recombinant chromosome 10. Array comparative genomic hybridization analysis of the cord blood and umbilical cord confirmed the prenatal diagnosis. CONCLUSION Prenatal diagnosis of a recombinant chromosome because of an advanced maternal age should alert the possibility of a paternal pericentric inversion.

Abstract
Large pericentric inversions in chromosome 10 are rare chromosomal aberrations with only few cases of familial inheritance. Such chromosomal rearrangements may lead to production of unbalanced gametes. As a result of a recombination event in the inversion loop, 2 recombinants with duplicated and deficient chromosome segments, including the regions distal to the inversion, may be produced. We report on 2 relatives in a family with opposite terminal chromosomal rearrangements of chromosome 10, i.e. rec(10)dup(10p)inv(10) and rec(10)dup(10q)inv(10), due to familial pericentric inversion inv(10)(p15.1q26.12). Based on array-CGH results, we characterized the exact genomic regions involved and compared the clinical features of both patients with previous reports on similar pericentric inversions and regional differences within 10p and 10q. The fact that both products of recombination are viable indicates a potentially high recurrence risk of unbalanced offspring. This report of unbalanced rearrangements in chromosome 10 in 2 generations confirms the importance of screening for terminal imbalances in patients with idiopathic intellectual disability by molecular cytogenetic techniques such as FISH, MLPA or microarrays. It also underlines the necessity for FISH to define structural characteristics of such cryptic intrachromosomal rearrangements and the underlying cytogenetic mechanisms.

Abstract
A de novo tandem inverted duplication of 10p was diagnosed in a 17-week fetus. The appearance of GTG banded preparations and the results of fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) studies are consistent with duplication of the entire arm, including the telomere. The FISH studies also demonstrated the presence of chromosome 10 alphoid repeats at the junction between the inverted segment and the long arm, consistent with the presence of the entire long arm of the abnormal chromosome. Therefore, this is a case of pure trisomy 10p without an associated deficiency of any other chromosome segment. A comparison of the phenotype associated with pure trisomy 10p and trisomy associated with a duplication/deficiency state documented a higher frequency (of borderline significance) of clubfoot and high-arched/cleft palate in the cases of pure trisomy. The frequency of palatal anomalies was observed to be significantly higher in the cases where the breakpoint of the trisomic segment is in the most proximal band (10p11). However, other clinical manifestations were observed inconsistently, even in the cases with pure, nearly complete trisomy 10p. Therefore, a clearly defined trisomy 10p clinical syndrome could not be documented in this study.
