Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present incidental detection of familial 8p23.2 microduplication encompassing CSMD1 associated with mosaic 46,XY,t(7;8)(q31.2;p23.1)/46,XY at amniocentesis in a pregnancy with no apparent phenotypic abnormality and a favorable outcome. CASE REPORT A 38-year-old, gravida 2, para 1, phenotypically normal woman underwent amniocentesis at 19 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 46,XY,t(7;8)(q31.2;p23.1)[2]/46,XY[20]. The parental karyotypes were normal. Array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on the DNA extracted from cultured amniocytes and parental bloods revealed the result of a 2.178-Mb 8p23.2 microduplication encompassing CSMD1, or arr 8p23.2 (3,070,237-5,248,586) × 3.0 [GRCh37 (hg19)] in the fetus and the mother. The father did not have such a microduplicaiton. Prenatal ultrasound findings were unremarkable. At 38 weeks of gestation, a 2880-g phenotypically normal male baby was delivered. All the cord blood, umbilical cord and placenta had the karyotype of 46.XY. When follow-up at age six months, the neonate was normal in phenotype and development. CONCLUSION Mosaicism for a balanced reciprocal translocation with a euploid cell line can be a transient and benign condition. Familial 8p23.2 microduplication encompassing CSMD1 can be associated with a favorable outcome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present prenatal diagnosis and perinatal findings of 17q12 microdeletion encompassing HNF1B in a fetus with bilateral hyperechogenic kidneys on fetal ultrasound and mild renal abnormality after birth, and a review of the literature. CASE REPORT A 36-year-old, primigravid woman underwent amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age. Simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes showed a de novo 1.38-Mb 17q12 microdeletion encompassing LHX1 and HNF1B. The parents did not have such a microdeletion. Prenatal ultrasound showed bilateral hyperechogenic kidneys with normal corticomedullary (CM) differentiation. The parents elected to continue the pregnancy, and a grossly normal 3180-g male baby was delivered at 39 weeks of gestation. aCGH analysis on the cord blood DNA revealed arr [GRCh37 (hg19)] 17q12 (34,856,055-36,248,918) × 1.0 with a 1.393-Mb microdeletion encompassing the genes of MYO19, PIGW, GGNBP2, DHRS11, MRM1, LHX1, AATF, ACACA, TADA2A, DUSP14, SYNRG, DDX52 and HNF1B. When follow-up at age 2 years and 4 months, the renal ultrasound revealed bilateral increased renal echogenicity with normal CM differentiation and small left renal cysts. The blood test revealed BUN = 28 mg/dL (normal: 5-18 mg/dL) and creatinine = 0.5 mg/dL (normal: 0.2-0.4 mg/dL). CONCLUSION 17q12 microdeletion encompassing LHX1 and HNF1B at prenatal diagnosis may present variable clinical spectrum with bilateral hyperechogenic kidneys on fetal ultrasound and mild renal abnormality after birth. Prenatal diagnosis of fetal hyperechogenic kidneys should raise a suspicion of 17q12 microdeletion syndrome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the correlation of high levels [>2.0 multiples of median (MoM)] of amniotic fluid alpha-fetoprotein (AFAFP) in midtrimester with abnormal fetal outcome. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively studied 6245 pregnant women with singleton pregnancy who had undergone amniocentesis between 15 and 27 weeks' gestation at Mackay Memorial Hospital between January 2014 and June 2020. Fifty-five cases had high AFAFP levels (>2.0 MoM). We investigated the abnormal fetal outcomes. RESULTS Among the fifty-five cases with high AFAFP levels (>2.0 MoM), thirty (54.5%) had fetal chromosomal abnormalities, major structural abnormalities, and/or adverse obstetric events. Eight cases (14.5%) had chromosomal abnormalities including trisomy 21 (3 cases), trisomy 18 (3 cases), mosaic trisomy 18 (1 cases), and mosaic ring 13 (1 case). Seventeen cases (30.9%) had major structural abnormalities including abdominal wall defect (6 cases) and central nervous system (5 cases), gastrointestinal tract (3 cases), cardiovascular (2 cases), and genitourinary tract (2 cases) abnormalities. Fifteen cases (27%) had adverse obstetric events, including preterm delivery (5 cases), intrauterine fetal demise (4 cases), small for gestational age (4 cases), preeclampsia (4 cases), gestational diabetes mellitus (2 cases), gestational hypertension (1 case), preterm prelabor rupture of membrane (1 case), prolonged labor (1 case), and preterm uterine contraction (1 case). CONCLUSION A high AFAFP level (>2.0 MoM) in midtrimester can be associated with abnormal fetal outcome, including chromosomal abnormalities, major structural abnormalities, and adverse obstetric events. Women with a prenatal diagnosis of high AFAFP levels (>2.0 MoM) should be alerted of the possibility of abnormal fetal outcomes, and further detailed genetic studies and serial sonographic examinations are recommended.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present high-level mosaic trisomy 21 at amniocentesis in a pregnancy associated with positive non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) for trisomy 21, prenatal progressive decrease of the trisomy 21 cell line, acute fatty liver of pregnancy and intrauterine fetal death (IUFD) in late gestation. CASE REPORT A 32-year-old, primigravid woman underwent amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation because of positive NIPT for trisomy 21 at 12 weeks of gestation. This pregnancy was conceived by in vitro fertilization. She did not have obesity, diabetes mellitus, hepatic biliary disorders and preeclampsia. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 47,XY,+21[10]/46,XY[11], and array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on uncultured amniocytes revealed the result of arr (21) × 2-3. She was referred for genetic counseling, and repeat amniocentesis performed at 21 weeks of gestation revealed the karyotype of 47,XY,+21[10]/46,XY[28]. The parental karyotypes and fetal ultrasound findings were normal. Simultaneous molecular analysis on uncultured amniocytes showed no uniparental disomy 21, but a maternal origin of trisomy 21 by quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) and the result of arr 21q11.2q22.3 × 2.5 by aCGH analysis. At 27 weeks of gestation, she underwent a third amniocentesis, of which conventional cytogenetic analysis revealed the result of 47,XY,+21[5]/46,XY[17] in cultured amniocytes, and aCGH analysis revealed arr 21q11.2q22.3 × 2.48, and interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis revealed 39% (39/100 cells) mosaicism fro trisomy 21 in uncultured amniocytes. At 36 weeks of gestation, the woman suffered from a sudden onset of acute fatty liver and IUFD. A 3522-g male baby was delivered without Down syndrome phenotype. The umbilical cord had a karyotype of 47,XY,+21[10]/46,XY[30]. aCGH analysis on the skin and placenta showed arr 21q11.2q22.3 × 2.73 and arr 21q11.2q22.3 × 2.75, respectively. QF-PCR analysis of umbilical cord, placenta and skin showed a maternal origin of trisomy 21. CONCLUSION High-level mosaic trisomy 21 at amniocentesis can be associated with prenatal progressive decrease of the trisomy 21 cell line in cultured amniocytes and perinatal fetal mortality and maternal morbidity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present perinatal detection of disomy X cell line by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) in a pregnancy with 45,X/47,XXX at amniocentesis, cytogenetic discrepancy in various tissues and a favorable outcome. CASE REPORT A 34-year-old, gravida 3, para 1, woman underwent amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 45,X[22]/47,XXX[10]. Simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes revealed the result of arr (X) × 1-2, (1-22) × 2, consistent with 32% mosaicism for monosomy X. She was referred for genetic counseling at 19 weeks of gestation. Prenatal ultrasound findings and parental karyotypes were normal. Repeat amniocentesis at 29 weeks of gestation revealed a karyotype of 45,X[36]/47,XXX[4] (Fig. 1) in cultured amniocytes. Simultaneous molecular analysis on uncultured amniocytes revealed the result of arr (1-22) × 2, Y × 0 by aCGH with no genomic imbalance, and 15% (15/100 cells) mosaicism for disomy X, 61% (61/100 cells) mosaicism for monosomy X and 24% (24/100 cells) mosaicism for triple X by interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis. The pregnancy was encouraged to continue and at 37 weeks of gestation, a 2834-g phenotypically normal female baby was delivered. The karyotypes of cord blood, umbilical cord and placenta were 45,X[33]/47,XXX[7], 45,X[30]/47,XXX[10] and 47,XXX[38]/45,X[2], respectively. When follow-up at age three months, the neonate was normal in development. FISH analysis on 99 buccal mucosal cells showed 49% (48/99 cells) mosaicism for monosomy X, 8% (8/99 cells) mosaicism for triple X and 43% (42/99 cells) mosaicism for disomy X (Fig. 2). Peripheral blood had a karyotype of 45,X[38]/47,XXX[2]. When follow-up at age nine months, the neonate was normal in development. FISH analysis on 102 buccal mucosal cells showed 11% (11/102 cells) mosaicism for monosomy X, 12% (12/102 cells) mosaicism for triple X and 77% (79/102 cells) mosaicism for disomy X. Peripheral blood had a karyotype of 45,X[30]/47,XXX[10]. CONCLUSION 45,X/47,XXX at amniocentesis may detect disomy X cell line by FISH analysis and can be associated with postnatal progressive decrease of the aneuploid cell lines, increase of the disomy X cell line and a favorable outcome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present low-level mosaic trisomy 21 at amniocentesis in a pregnancy with a favorable fetal outcome. CASE REPORT A 34-year-old, primigravid woman underwent amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 47,XY,+21 [7]/46,XY [33]. At 23 weeks of gestation, repeat amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 47,XY,+21 [4]/46,XY [22], and cord blood sampling revealed the karyotype of 47,XY,+21 [5]/46,XY [35]. The parental karyotypes were normal. Quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) analysis on uncultured amniocytes and parental bloods excluded UPD 21, array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on uncultured amniocytes revealed the result of arr 21q11.2q22.3 × 2.3, consistent with 30% mosaicism for trisomy 21. Interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis on uncultured amniocytes revealed 43.8% (35/80 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 21. The woman was advised to continue the pregnancy, and a phenotypically normal 3,340-g male baby was delivered at 39 weeks of gestation. The cord blood had a karyotypes of 46,XY (40/40 cells). QF-PCR on placenta showed mosaic trisomy 21. When follow-up at age three months, the neonate was normal in phenotype and development. FISH analysis on buccal mucosal cells showed 9% (10/101 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 21, compared with 0% (0/100 cells) in the normal control. CONCLUSION Low-level mosaic trisomy 21 at amniocentesis can be associated with cytogenetic discrepancy between cultured amniocytes and uncultured amniocytes, perinatal progressive decrease of the aneuploid cell line and a favorable fetal outcome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present 45,X/46,XX at the first amniocentesis, and 45,X/47,XXX/46,XX at the repeat amniocentesis and at birth in a pregnancy associated with a favorable fetal outcome, perinatal progressive decrease of the 45,X cell line and cytogenetic discrepancy between cultured amniocytes and uncultured amniocytes. CASE REPORT A 43-year-old, gravida 3, para 1, woman underwent amniocentesis at 18 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 45,X[4]/46,XX[20]. Simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes revealed arr (X) × 3 [0.24], consistent with 24% mosaicism for triple X. Repeat amniocentesis at 20 weeks of gestation revealed the result of 45,X[17]/47,XXX[8]/46,XX[121]. She was referred for genetic counseling, and the third amniocentesis performed at 30 weeks of gestation revealed the result of 45,X[3]/47,XXX[2]/46,XX[16]. The mother had a karyotype of 46,XX. aCGH analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes showed arr Xp22.33q28 × 2.2 (log2 ratio = 0.15), consistent with 20% mosaicism for triple X. Interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis on 100 uncultured amniocytes showed that 11 cells (11%) were monosomy X, seven cells (7%) were triple X, and the others were disomy X. At 39 weeks of gestation, a 3,620-g phenotypically normal female baby was delivered without any phenotypic abnormality. The karyotypes of cord blood, umbilical cord and placenta were 47,XXX[7]/45,X[1]/46,XX[32], 47,XXX[13]/46,XX[27] and 47,XXX[2]/46,XX[38], respectively. When follow-up at age one month, the neonate was phenotypically normal, and FISH analysis on 106 buccal mucosal cells showed that eight cells (7.5%) were monosomy X, seven cells (6.6%) were triple X, and the others were disomy X. CONCLUSION Mosaic 45,X/46,XX at amniocentesis may be in fact mosaic 45,X/47,XXX/46,XX and can be associated with a favorable fetal outcome and perinatal progressive decrease of the 45,X cell line.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present low-level mosaic trisomy 21 at amniocentesis in a pregnancy associated with cytogenetic discrepancy in various tissues, perinatal progressive decrease of the trisomy 21 cell line and a favorable fetal outcome. CASE REPORT A 36-year-old, gravida 2, para 1, woman underwent amniocentesis at 18 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age, and the result was 47,XY,+21 [8]/46,XY [26]. Prenatal ultrasound findings were unremarkable. She was referred for genetic counseling, and repeat amniocentesis performed at 23 weeks of gestation revealed the result of 47,XY,+21 [3]/46,XY [21]. The parental karyotypes were normal. At repeat amniocentesis, quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) analysis using the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes and parental bloods excluded uniparental disomy (UPD) 21, array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on uncultured amniocytes revealed the result of arr 21q11.2q22.3 × 2.4, consistent with 40% mosaicism for trisomy 21, and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis on uncultured amniocytes revealed 67% (67/100 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 21. The woman was advised to continue the pregnancy, and a 1370-g male baby was delivered prematurely at 29 weeks of gestation without phenotypic abnormalities. The karyotypes of umbilical cord and placenta were 47,XY,+21 [13]/46,XY [27] and 47,XY,+21 [40], respectively. QF-PCR determined maternal origin of the extra chromosome 21 of trisomy 21 in the placenta. When follow-up at age 8½ months, the neonate was normal in appearance and development. The peripheral blood had a karyotype of 47,XY,+21 [1]/46,XY [39], and FISH analysis on buccal mucosal cells showed 9.7% (11/113 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 21, compared with 2% (2/100 cells) in the normal control. CONCLUSION Low-level mosaic trisomy 21 at amniocentesis can be associated with cytogenetic discrepancy in various tissues, perinatal progressive decrease of the trisomy 21 cell line and a favorable fetal outcome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present high-level mosaicism for 45,X in 45,X/46,X,+mar at amniocentesis in a pregnancy associated with positive non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) for Turner syndrome, normal male external genitalia and positive SRY in the fetus, a favorable fetal outcome, postnatal decrease of the 45,X cell line and cytogenetic discrepancy in various tissues. CASE REPORT A 35-year-old, gravida 2, para 1, woman underwent amniocentesis at 16 weeks of gestation because of positive NIPT for Turner syndrome (Z score = -11.72 for X chromosome) at 10 weeks of gestation. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 45,X[13]/46,X,+mar[8]. Simultaneous molecular analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes revealed the results of arr (X) × 1, (Yp) × 0-1 (0.63), (Yq) × 0, (1-22) × 2 in array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) and rsa(X) × 1, Yp11.31 × 0-1, Yq11.21 × 0, (13, 18, 21) × 2 in multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA). The parental karyotypes were normal. Prenatal ultrasound revealed normal male external genitalia. She was referred for genetic counseling, and continuing pregnancy was advised. A 2875-g male baby was delivered at 38 weeks of gestation with normal male external genitalia. The karyotypes of cord blood, umbilical cord and placenta were 46,X,+mar[27]/45,X[13], 46,X,+mar[24]/45,X[16] and 45,X[22]/46,X,+mar[18], respectively. SRY testing on cord blood revealed a positive result. When follow-up at age two months, the neonate was normal in development. The karyotype of peripheral blood was 46,X,+mar[25]/45,X[13]/46,X,idic r(Y) [2]. Interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis on 103 buccal mucosal cells using Yp11.2-specific probe RP11-119E4 and Xp22.31-specific probe RP11-143E20 showed that 90 cells (90/103 = 87%) had double Yp signals, 3 cells (3/103 = 3%) had single Yp signal and 10 cells (10/103 = 10%) had no Yp signal. CONCLUSION High-level mosaicism for 45,X in 45,X/46,X,+mar at amniocentesis with positive Yp and SRY can be associated with a favorable fetal outcome, postnatal decrease of the 45,X cell line and cytogenetic discrepancy in various tissues.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present genetic counseling of a prenatally detected familial 18.79-kb Xp21.1 microduplication encompassing exon 13 of DMD in a pregnancy with no apparent phenotypic abnormalities in the male carriers in the family. CASE REPORT A 35-year-old, gravida 2, para 0, woman underwent amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 46,XY. Simultaneous aCGH analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes revealed an 18.79-kb Xp21.1 microduplication, or arr Xp21.1 (32,608,400-32,627,193) × 2.0 [GRCh37 (hg19)] encompassing only exon 13 of the gene of DMD (31,137,345-33,357,706) [GRCh37 (hg19)]. Multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) analysis of the family showed that the mother and her 32-year-old brother carried the same duplication but without apparent phenotypic abnormalities and no features of DMD. Prenatal ultrasound was normal. She was referred for genetic counseling at 24 weeks of gestation, and continuing pregnancy was advised. At 38 weeks of gestation, a 3530-g phenotypically normal male baby was delivered. aCGH analysis of the umbilical cord confirmed the result of arr Xp21.1 (32,608,400-32,627,193) × 2.0 [GRCh37 (hg19)] encompassing only exon 13 of the gene of DMD (31,137,345-33,357,706) [GRCh37 (hg19)]. CONCLUSION Xp21.1 microduplication encompassing exon 13 of the DMD gene can be a benign genetic variant.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present mosaicism for a 12p12.1p12.2 microdeletion with a normal euploid cell line at amniocentesis in a pregnancy with a favorable outcome and postnatal decrease of the aneuploid cell line with microdeletion. CASE REPORT A 35-year-old woman, gravida 2, para 1, underwent amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age. Amniocentesis revealed mosaic 46,XY,del (12) (p11.2p12), and array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) revealed arr Xp22.31 × 2 mat, 12p12.2p12.1 × 1 [0.36]dn with a 4.15-Mb 36% mosaicism for a 12p12.1p12.2 microdeletion. At 22 weeks of gestation, she underwent cord blood sampling of which aCGH revealed arr Xp22.31 × 2 mat, 12p12.2p12.1 × 1 [0.34]dn with a 4.24-Mb 34% mosaicism for a 12p12.1p12.2 microdeletion. Prenatal ultrasound findings were unremarkable. She was referred for genetic counseling, and continuing pregnancy was advised. A 2990-g male baby was delivered at 38 weeks of gestation with no phenotypic abnormality. When follow-up at age 1½ months, the neonate was phenotypically normal. The karyotype of peripheral blood was 46,XY. aCGH analysis on the DNA extracted from peripheral blood revealed the result of arr 12p12.1p12.2 (20, 367, 240-24,489,386) × 1.87, arr Xp22.31 (6,488,721-8,097,511) × 2.0 [GRCh37 (hg19)] with 10-15% (log2 ratio = 0.1) mosaicism for a 4.122-Mb 12p12.1-p12.2 microdeletion encompassing 17 OMIM genes of PDE3A, SLCO1C1, SLCO1B3, SLCO1B1, IAPP, PYROXD1, RECQL, GOLT1B, SPX, GYS2, LDHB, KCNJ8, ABCCP, CMAS, C2CD5, ETNK1 and SOX5 and a 1.609-Mb Xp22.31 duplication encompassing two OMIM genes of STS and VCX. Interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis on 104 buccal mucosal cells using 12p12.1-specific probe showed 17% (18/104 cells) mosaicism for a 12p12.1 deletion. Polymorphic DNA marker analysis on the DNA extracted from proband's blood and parental bloods determined a paternal origin of the mosaic 12p12.1 deletion. CONCLUSION Mosaicism for a 12p12.1p12.2 microdeletion at amniocentesis with a normal euploid cell line can be a benign condition in association with a favorable fetal outcome and postnatal decrease of the aneuploid cell line with microdeletion.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present mosaic trisomy 16 at amniocentesis in a pregnancy associated with positive non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) for trisomy 16, placental trisomy 16, intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), intrauterine fetal death (IUFD), cytogenetic discrepancy between cultured amniocytes and uncultured amniocytes and uncultured amniocytes, and prenatal progressive decrease of the aneuploid cell line. CASE REPORT A 26-year-old, primigravid woman underwent amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation because of positive NIPT for trisomy 16 at 12 weeks of gestation. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 47,XX,+16 [10]/46,XX[17], and simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes revealed the result of arr (16) × 3 [0.43] consistent with 43% mosaicism for trisomy 16. She was referred for genetic counseling at 19 weeks of gestation, and a fetus with IUGR was noted to have a size equivalent to 16 weeks of gestation. At 23 weeks of gestation, the fetus manifested oligohydramnios, fetal cardiomegaly and severe IUGR (fetal size equivalent to 20 weeks of gestation). Repeat amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 46,XX (20/20 colonies) in cultured amniocytes and mosaic trisomy 16 by aCGH in uncultured amniocytes. aCGH analysis on uncultured amniocytes revealed the result of arr 16p13.3q24.3 × 2.3, consistent with 30% (log2 ratio = 0.2) mosaicism for trisomy 16. Quantitative fluorescence polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) assays on the DNA extracted from parental bloods and uncultured amniocytes excluded uniparental disomy (UPD) 16. The parental karyotypes were normal. IUFD was noted at amniocentesis. The pregnancy was subsequently terminated, and a 288-g female fetus was delivered with no phenotypic abnormalities. The umbilical cord had a karyotype of 46,XX (40/40 cells), and the placenta had a karyotype of 47,XX,+16 (40/40 cells). QF-PCR assays of the placenta confirmed a maternal origin of trisomy 16. CONCLUSION Mosaic trisomy 16 at amniocentesis can be associated with positive NIPT for trisomy 16, placental trisomy 16, IUGR, IUFD, cytogenetic discrepancy between cultured amniocytes and uncultured amniocytes, and prenatal progressive decrease of the aneuploid cell line.

OBJECTIVE We present genetic counseling, prenatal diagnosis and postnatal follow-up of 45,XY,der(15;22)(q10;q10)mat/46,XY,i(15)(q10)/46,XY at amniocentesis in a pregnancy with a favorable fetal outcome. CASE REPORT A 27-year-old, primigravid woman underwent amniocentesis at 19 weeks of gestation because increased nuchal translucency thickness, and the result was 45,XY,der(15;22)(q10;q10)[29]/46,XY,i(15)(q10)[3]/46,XY[5]. Simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes revealed arr (1-22) × 2, (X,Y) × 1. The maternal karyotype was 45,XX,der(15;22)(q10;q10), and the paternal karyotype was 46,XY. She was referred for genetic counseling, and repeat amniocentesis performed at 23 weeks of gestation revealed 45,XY,der(15;22)(q10;q10)mat[23]/45,XY,-22[2]. aCGH analysis on uncultured amniocytes detected no genomic imbalance, and polymorphic DNA marker analysis excluded uniparental disomy (UPD) 15. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis using the chromosome 15q specific probe and the chromosome 22q specific probe detected three 15q signals in 4/104 cells (3.8%). The woman was advised to continue the pregnancy, and, a 3186-g phenotypically normal male baby was delivered at 38 weeks of gestation. The umbilical cord had a karyotype of 45,XY,der(15;22)(q10;q10) (40/40 cells). When follow-up at age seven months, the neonate was normal in development, the peripheral blood had a karyotype of 45,XY,der(15;22)(q10;q10) (40/40 cells), and the buccal mucosal cells had normal signals in all 100 cells. CONCLUSIONS Mosaicism for Robertsonian jumping translocations at amniocentesis can be a transient condition and can be associated with a familial Robertsonian translocation and a favorable fetal outcome. Prenatal diagnosis of a Robertsonian jumping translocation involving chromosome 15 should include UPD 15 testing to exclude UPD 15.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present prenatal diagnosis of mosaic trisomy 18 and maternal uniparental disomy (UPD) 18 in a pregnancy with a favorable fetal outcome. CASE REPORT A 34-year-old woman underwent amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age, and the result was 47,XY,+18 [4]/46,XY [25] in cultured amniocytes. Simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) on uncultured amniocytes revealed 65% mosaicism for trisomy 18. Prenatal ultrasound was normal. She consulted our hospital and underwent repeat amniocentesis at 22 weeks of gestation, and the result revealed a karyotype of 47,XY,+18 [9]/46,XY [12] in cultured amniocytes. Simultaneous aCGH on uncultured amniocytes revealed arr 18p11.32q23 × 2.4 (log2 ratio = 0.3) consistent with 40% mosaicism for trisomy 18. Parental karyotypes were normal. Quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) analysis on the DNA extracted from parental bloods and uncultured amniocytes confirmed maternal uniparental heterodisomy of chromosome 18. At 26 weeks of gestation, she underwent the third amniocentesis which revealed a karyotype of 47,XY,+18 [7]/46,XY [19] in cultured amniocytes. Simultaneous aCGH on uncultured amniocytes revealed arr 18p11.32q23 × 2.4 (log2 ratio = 0.27) consistent with 40% mosaicism for trisomy 18. Interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) on uncultured amniocytes revealed 38% (38/100 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 18. The woman was advised to continue the pregnancy, and a 2620-g phenotypically normal male baby was delivered at 40 weeks of gestation. At birth, the karyotypes of cord blood, umbilical cord and placenta were 47,XY,+18 [14]/46,XY [26], 47,XY,+18 [9]/46,XY [31] and 47,XY,+18 (40/40 cells), respectively. When follow-up at age 2½ months, the neonate was phenotypically normal. The peripheral blood had a karyotype of 47,XY,+18 [28]/46,XY [12], and interphase FISH analysis on buccal mucosal cells detected 6.4% (7/93 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 18, compared with 0% (0/100 cells) in the normal control. When follow-up at age seven months, the neonate was normal in development, and the peripheral blood had a karyotype of 47,XY,+18 [18]/46,XY [22]. CONCLUSIONS Mosaic trisomy 18 at amniocentesis can be associated with cytogenetic discrepancy in various tissues, UPD 18 and a favorable fetal outcome. Prenatal diagnosis of mosaic trisomy 18 should alert the possibility of UPD 18 and include UPD testing.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present 45,X/46,XX at amniocentesis associated with cytogenetic discrepancy between cultured amniocytes and uncultured amniocytes and in different amniocenteses and a favorable fetal outcome with a normal karyotype at birth. CASE REPORT A 35-year-old, gravida 3, para 2, woman underwent amniocentesis at 20 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 45,X[11]/46,XX[108], consistent with 9.2% mosaicism for 45,X. Prenatal ultrasound findings were unremarkable. She was referred for genetic counseling at 25 weeks of gestation, and repeat amniocentesis at 26 weeks of gestation revealed a karyotype of 45,X[4]/46,XX[16], consistent with 20% mosaicism for 45,X. Simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes using SurePrint G3 Unrestricted CGH ISCA v2, 8 × 60K (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA) revealed arr (1-22, X) × 2, Y × 0 with no genomic imbalance. The woman was advised to continue pregnancy, and at 38 weeks of gestation, a healthy 3140-g female baby was delivered with no phenotypic abnormalities. The cord blood had a karyotype of 46,XX (40/40 cells). When follow-up at age two months, the neonate had normal development and a normal karyotype. CONCLUSION Confirmation of 45,X/46,XX at amniocentesis should include conventional cytogenetic analysis and karyotyping on cultured amniocytes, and sole molecular analysis on uncultured amniocytes may miss the diagnosis of 45,X/46,XX.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present low-level mosaic trisomy 21 at amniocentesis associated with a favorable fetal outcome. CASE REPORT A 31-year-old primigravid woman underwent non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) at 12 weeks of gestation, and the result was normal. She underwent amniocentesis at 16 weeks of gestation because of fetal choroid plexus cyst, and the result was 47,XX,+21[5]/46,XX[32]. Repeat amniocentesis was performed at 19 weeks of gestation, and the result was 47,XX,+21[5]/46,XX[15]. Simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on uncultured amniocytes revealed the result of arr (21) × 3 [0.10], consistent with 10% mosaicism for trisomy 21. Prenatal ultrasound findings were unremarkable. She was referred for genetic counseling at 22 weeks of gestation, and the third amniocentesis was performed at 25 weeks of gestation, and the result was 46,XX (20/20 colonies). The parental karyotypes were normal. Simultaneous quantitative fluorescence polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes and parental bloods excluded uniparental disomy (UPD) 21. aCGH analysis on uncultured amniocytes revealed arr 21q11.2q22.3 × 2.1 (log2 ratio = 0.1), consistent with 10-15% mosaicism for trisomy 21. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis on uncultured amniocytes revealed 30% (30/100 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 21. The woman was advised to continue the pregnancy, and a phenotypically normal 2800-g female baby was delivered at 38 weeks of gestation. The karyotype of cord blood, umbilical cord and placenta were 47,XX,+21[1]/46,XX[39]. 47,XX,+21[4]/46,XX[36] and 46,XX (40/40 cells), respectively. When follow-up at age two months, the neonate was phenotypically normal. The peripheral blood had a karyotype of 47,XX,+21[1]/46,XX[39], and FISH analysis on buccal mucosal cells revealed 8.4% (7/83 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 21, compared with 0% in the normal control. CONCLUSION Low-level mosaic trisomy 21 at amniocentesis can be associated with a negative NIPT result, cytogenetic discrepancy in various tissues, perinatal progressive decrease of the aneuploid cell line and a favorable fetal outcome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present low-level mosaic trisomy 13 at amniocentesis in a pregnancy associated with a positive non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) result suspicious of trisomy 13, a chorionic villus sampling (CVS) result of mosaic trisomy 13, cytogenetic discrepancy in various tissues and a favorable fetal outcome. CASE REPORT A 29-year-old, gravida 2, para 1, woman underwent amniocentesis at 20 weeks of gestation because of a positive NIPT result (Z-score = 20.9, positive ≥3) suspicious of trisomy 13 at 11 weeks of gestation and a CVS result of mosaic trisomy 13 at 14 weeks of gestation. At 14 weeks of gestation, CVS revealed the multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) result of rea X,Y (P095) × 1, 13 (P095) × 3, 18,21 (P095) × 2/X,Y (P095) × 1, 13,18,21 (P095) × 2 and a karyotype of 48,XY,+13,+mar [9]/47,XY,+mar[16]. She was referred to the hospital for genetic counseling at 15 weeks of gestation, and cytogenetic analysis of parental blood revealed 47,XY,+mar in the father and 46, XX in the mother. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis on the paternal blood showed that the extra dicentric marker was derived from chromosome 15 without the locus SNRPN (15q11.2), and the result was 47,XY,+mar.ish dic(15) (D15Z1++, SNRPN-, PML-)[20]. Amniocentesis at 20 weeks of gestation revealed a karyotype of 47,XY,+mar pat (20/20). Simultaneous interphase FISH analysis on uncultured amniocytes revealed 32% (32/100 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 13. Quantitative fluorescence polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) analysis using the DNA extracted from the parental bloods and uncultured amniocytes excluded uniparental disomy (UPD) 13. Prenatal ultrasound findings were normal. The woman was advised to continue the pregnancy, and a phenotypically normal 2708-g male baby was delivered at 38 weeks of gestation, The cord blood, umbilical cord and placenta had the karyotypes of 47,XY,+mar pat and did not have UPD 13. When follow-up at age two months, the neonate was phenotypically normal. FISH analysis on buccal mucosal cells detected 5.3% (5/95 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 13, compared with 0% in the normal control. CONCLUSION Low-level mosaic trisomy 13 at amniocentesis can be associated with a positive NIPT result suspicious of trisomy 13, a CVS result of mosaic trisomy 13, cytogenetic discrepancy in various tissues and a favorable fetal outcome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present low-level mosaic trisomy 2 at amniocentesis in a pregnancy associated with positive non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) and chorionic villus sampling (CVS) results for trisomy 2, maternal uniparental disomy (UPD) 2, perinatal progressive decrease of the aneuploid cell line, cytogenetic discrepancy between cultured amniocytes and uncultured amniocytes, intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and a favorable fetal outcome. CASE REPORT A 35-year-old, primigravid woman underwent amniocentesis at 16 weeks of gestation because both NIPT at 9 weeks of gestation and CVS at 11 weeks of gestation revealed trisomy 2. This pregnancy was conceived by in vitro fertilization (IVF) and embryo transfer (ET). Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 47,XY,+2[11]/46,XY[19]. Prenatal ultrasound findings were normal. She was referred to the hospital for genetic counseling at 20 weeks of gestation, and repeat amniocentesis performed at 24 weeks of gestation revealed a karyotype of 46,XY (22/22 colonies). The parental karyotypes were normal. Quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes and parental bloods revealed maternal uniparental heterodisomy of chromosome 2. Simultaneous molecular cytogenetic analysis on uncultured amniocytes showed the results of arr 2p25.3q37.3 × 2.4 with a log2 ratio = 0.26, consistent with 40% mosaicism for trisomy 2 by array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH), and 28% (28/100 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 2 by interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Despite IUGR on fetal ultrasound, the woman was advised to continue the pregnancy, and a 2252-g phenotypically normal male baby was delivered at 38 weeks of gestation. The karyotypes of cord blood, umbilical cord and placenta were 46,XY (40/40 colonies), 46,XY (40/40 colonies) and 47,XY,+2[9]/46,XY[31], respectively. QF-PCR analysis on cord blood, umbilical cord and placenta confirmed uniparental heterodisomy of chromosome 2 in the cord blood and umbilical cord, and maternal origin of trisomy 2 in the placenta. FISH analysis on buccal mucosal cells at age 1.5 months revealed 8.7% (9/104 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 2. When follow-up at age four months, the neonate manifested a normal phenotype except intermittent hypoventilation. Molecular analysis of the PHOX2B gene revealed a normal result. When follow-up at age one year, he manifested normal development. CONCLUSION Mosaic trisomy 2 at prenatal diagnosis should alert the possibility of UPD 2 and include a UPD 2 testing. Low-level mosaic trisomy 2 at amniocentesis can be associated with perinatal progressive decrease of the aneuploid cell line and a favorable fetal outcome.

OBJECTIVE We present mosaicism for a 15q11.2 microduplication with a normal euploid cell line at amniocentesis in a pregnancy with a favorable fetal outcome and postnatal decrease of the aneuploid cell line with the microduplication. CASE REPORT A 35-year-old, primigravid woman underwent amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 46,XY. Simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes revealed 33.76% mosaicism for a 15q11.2 microduplication. She was referred for genetic counseling. Repeat amniocentesis was performed at 23 weeks of gestation, and the karyotype was 46,XY. Simultaneous aCGH analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes revealed the result of arr [GRCh37 (hg19)] 15q11.2 (23, 889, 686-25,514,125) × 2.45, consistent with a mosaic 1.624-Mb microduplication with the mosaic level of 40%-45% (log2 ratio = 0.28) encompassing nine OMIM genes of MAGEL2, NDN, PWRN2, PWRN1, NPAP1, SNRPN, SNHG14, SNORD116-1 and SNORD115-1. Interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis on 100 uncultured amniocytes detected a 15q11.2 duplication in 19 cells, consistent with 19% (19/100 cells) mosaic15q11.2 duplication. Polymorphic DNA marker analysis excluded uniparental disomy (UPD) 15. Prenatal ultrasound findings were unremarkable. She was advised to continue the pregnancy, and a 3865-g phenotypically normal male baby was delivered. aCGH analysis on the DNA extracted from cord blood at birth and buccal mucosal cells at age four months revealed arr (1-22) × 2, X × 1, Y × 1 and detected no genomic imbalance in all samples. Interphase FISH analysis on 104 buccal mucosal cells at age four months detected four cells (4/104 = 4%) with a 15q11.2 duplication, compared with 0% (0/102 cells) in the normal control. The neonate was normal in the development. CONCLUSION Mosaicism for a 15q11.2 microduplication at amniocentesis with a normal euploid cell line can be a benign condition and associated with a favorable fetal outcome and postnatal decrease of the aneuploid cell line with the microduplication.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present high-level mosaic trisomy 14 at amniocentesis in a pregnancy associated with congenital heart defects (CHD) and intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). CASE REPORT A 34-year-old, primigravid woman underwent amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age. This pregnancy was conceived by in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET). Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 47,XX,+14[9]/46,XX[13], consistent with 40.9% (9/22 colonies) mosaicism for trisomy 14. Simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes revealed 61% mosaicism for trisomy 14. Prenatal ultrasound at 22 weeks of gestation showed a malformed fetus with double outlet of right ventricle (DORV), ventricular septal defect (VSD), pulmonary stenosis and severe IUGR with the growth parameters equivalent to 18 weeks of gestation. The pregnancy was terminated at 23 weeks of gestation, and a 278-g female fetus was delivered with facial dysmorphism of hypertelorism, low-set small ears and wide depressed nasal bridge. Quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) analysis on the DNA extracted from parental bloods, cord blood, umbilical cord and placenta confirmed a maternal origin of the extra chromosome 14 and excluded uniparental disomy (UPD) 14. The umbilical cord had a karyotype of 47,XX,+14[7]/ 46,XX[13], and the placenta had a karyotype of 47,XX,+14[4]/46,XX[36]. CONCLUSIONS High-level mosaic trisomy 14 at amniocentesis can be associated with abnormal ultrasound findings of CHD and IUGR.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present low-level mosaic trisomy 20 without uniparental disomy (UPD) 20 at amniocentesis in a pregnancy associated with a favorable outcome, cytogenetic discrepancy between uncultured amniocytes and cultured amniocytes and perinatal progressive decrease of the aneuploid cell line. CASE REPORT A 36-year-old, gravida 2, para 1, woman underwent amniocentesis at 16 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 47,XY,+20[3]/46,XY[17]. Array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes revealed the result of arr (1-22) × 2, X × 1, Y × 1 with no genomic imbalance. Prenatal ultrasound was unremarkable. She was referred for genetic counseling at 23 weeks of gestation, and repeat amniocentesis was performed. Cytogenetic analysis of the cultured amniocytes revealed a karyotype of 47,XY,+20[1]/46,XY[27]. Simultaneous aCGH analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes by SurePrint G3 Unrestricted CGH ISCA v2, 8 × 60 K (Agilent Technologies, CA, USA) revealed the result of arr (1-22) × 2, X × 1, Y × 1. Quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) assays on the DNAs extracted from uncultured amniocytes and parental bloods excluded UPD 20. The woman was advised to continue the pregnancy, and a healthy 3750-g phenotypically normal male baby was delivered at 38 weeks of gestation. The cord blood had a karyotype of 46,XY (40/40 cells). CONCLUSION Low-level mosaic trisomy 20 without UPD 20 at amniocentesis can be associated with a favorable outcome. Progressive decrease of the aneuploid cell line can occur in mosaic trisomy 20 at amniocentesis. Low-level mosaic trisomy 20 at amniocentesis can be a transient and benign condition.

OBJECTIVE We present low-level mosaic double trisomy involving trisomy 6 and trisomy 20 (48,XY,+6,+20) at amniocentesis without uniparental disomy (UPD) 6 and UPD 20 in a pregnancy associated with a favorable outcome. CASE REPORT A 38-year-old woman underwent amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 48,XY,+6,+20[2]/46,XY[15]. Repeat amniocentesis at 20 weeks of gestation revealed a karyotype of 48,XY,+6,+20[6]/46,XY[43], and simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes revealed the result of arr (X,Y) × 1, (1-22) × 2 with no genomic imbalance. At 22 weeks of gestation, the woman underwent cordocentesis which revealed karyotype of 46,XY (60/60 cells). At 26 weeks of gestation, the woman underwent the third amniocentesis which revealed a karyotype of 48,XY,+6,+20[5]/46,XY[30], and simultaneous aCGH analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes revealed the result of arr (1-22) × 2, X × 1, Y × 1 without genomic imbalance. The parental karyotypes and prenatal ultrasound were normal. Polymorphic marker analysis using the DNAs extracted from uncultured amniocytes and parental bloods excluded UPD 6 and UPD 20. Interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis on 100 uncultured amniocytes detected double trisomy 6 and trisomy 20 in 10 cells, consistent with 10% (10/100 cells) mosaicism for double trisomy 6 and trisomy 20. The woman was encouraged to continue the pregnancy, and a phenotypically normal 3328-g male baby was delivered at 38 weeks of gestation. The cord blood, umbilical cord and the placenta had a karyotype of 46,XY (40/40 cells). CONCLUSION Low-level mosaic double trisomy involving trisomy 6 and trisomy 20 at amniocentesis without UPD 6 and UPD 20 can be associated with a favorable fetal outcome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present prenatal diagnosis and molecular genetic analysis of recurrent trisomy 18 of maternal origin in two consecutive pregnancies. CASE REPORT A 37-year-old, gravida 3, para 1, woman was referred for genetic counseling because of cystic hygroma on ultrasound at 12 weeks of gestation, a previous pregnancy with a fetus with trisomy 18, and an abnormal first-trimester non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) result of Z score of 9.74 (normal: -3.0-3.0) in chromosome 18 suggesting trisomy 18 during this pregnancy. The fetus died at 14 weeks of gestation, and a malformed fetus was terminated at 15 weeks of gestation. Cytogenetic analysis of the placenta revealed a karyotype of 47,XY,+18. Quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) assays on the DNA extracted from parental bloods and umbilical cord determined a maternal origin of trisomy 18. One year previously, the woman underwent amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age of 36 years. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 47,XX,+18. Prenatal ultrasound was unremarkable. The mother had a karyotype of 46,XX, and the father had a karyotype of 46,XY. QF-PCR assays on the DNA extracted from parental bloods and cultured amniocytes determined a maternal origin of trisomy 18. The pregnancy was subsequently terminated. CONCLUSION NIPT is useful for rapid prenatal diagnosis of recurrent trisomy 18 under such a circumstance.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present low-level mosaic trisomy 9 at amniocentesis associated with a positive non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) for trisomy 9, maternal uniparental disomy (UPD) 9, intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and a favorable fetal outcome in a pregnancy. CASE REPORT A 41-year-old, gravida 3, para 0, woman underwent amniocentesis at 18 weeks of gestation because of NIPT at 10 weeks of gestation suspicious of trisomy 9 in the fetus. This pregnancy was conceived by in vitro fertilization (IVF). Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 47,XY,+9 [2]/46,XY[23]. Simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes revealed arr (1-22) × 2, (X,Y) × 1 and detected no genomic imbalance. Polymorphic DNA marker analysis showed maternal uniparental heterodisomy 9 in the amniocytes. Prenatal ultrasound was normal. The woman was referred for genetic counseling at 22 weeks of gestation. The soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase (sFlt)/placental growth factor (PlGF) = 13.1 (normal < 38). There was no gestational hypertension. Continuing the pregnancy was advised. No repeat amniocentesis was performed because of persistent irregular contractions. IUGR was noted. A 2156-g phenotypically normal baby was delivered at 37 weeks of gestation. The cord blood and umbilical cord had a karyotype of 46,XY (40/40 cells). The placenta had a karyotype of 47,XY,+9 (40/40 cells). The parental karyotypes were normal. Quantitative fluorescence polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) on the DNA extracted from parental bloods, cord blood, umbilical cord and placenta revealed maternal uniparental heterodisomy 9 in cord blood and umbilical cord, and trisomy 9 of maternal origin in placenta. When follow-up at age three months, the neonate was normal in development and phenotype. The buccal mucosal cells had 3% (3/101 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 9 by interphase fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis. CONCLUSION Mosaic trisomy 9 at prenatal diagnosis should alert the possibility of UPD 9 and include a UPD 9 testing. Low-level mosaic trisomy 9 at amniocentesis can be associated with UPD 9 and a favorable fetal outcome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present molecular cytogenetic characterization of del(X) (p22.33)mat and de novo dup(4) (q34.3q35.2) in a male fetus with multiple anomalies of facial dysmorphism, ventriculomegaly, congenital heart defects, short long bones and clinodactyly. CASE REPORT A 36-year-old, gravida 3, para 1, woman with short stature (152 cm) underwent amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 46,Y,del(X)(p22.33)mat, dup(4)(q34.3q35.2). The mother had a karyotype of 46,X,del(X)(p22.33). Array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on the DNA extracted from cultured amniocytes revealed arr Xp22.33 × 0, 4q34.3q35.2 × 3. Prenatal ultrasound at 23 weeks of gestation revealed multiple anomalies of flat nasal bridge, ventriculomegaly, atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD) and clinodactyly. The pregnancy was subsequently terminated, and a malformed fetus was delivered with facial dysmorphism. Cytogenetic analysis of the umbilical cord revealed 46,Y,del(X)(p22.33)mat, dup(4)(q34.3q35.2)dn. aCGH analysis on the DNA extracted from the umbilical cord revealed arr [GRCh37 (hg19)] 4q34.3q35.2 (181,149,823-188,191,938) × 3.0, arr Xp22.33 (470,485-2,985,006) × 0 with a 7.042-Mb duplication of 4q34.3-q35.2 and a 2.514-Mb deletion of Xp22.33. CONCLUSION A male fetus with del(X)(p22.33) and dup(4)(q34.3q35.2) may present congenital heart defects and short long bones on prenatal ultrasound.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present low-level mosaic trisomy 9 at amniocentesis in a pregnancy associated with a favorable fetal outcome, intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), cytogenetic discrepancy between cultured amniocytes and uncultured amniocytes and perinatal progressive decrease of the aneuploid cell line. CASE REPORT A 37-year-old, primigravid woman underwent amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age. This pregnancy was conceived by in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET). Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 47,XY,+9[11]/46,XY[32], and simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes revealed arr (X,Y) × 1, (1-22) × 2 without genomic imbalance. Prenatal ultrasound and parental karyotypes were normal. Repeat amniocentesis at 22 weeks of gestation revealed a karyotype of 47,XY,+9[5]/46,XY[19], and simultaneous aCGH analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes revealed arr 9p24.3q34.3 × 2.1 (log2 ratio = 0.1) compatible with 10-15% mosaicism for trisomy 9. Quantitative fluorescence polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) assays excluded uniparental disomy (UPD) 9. A third amniocentesis at 29 weeks of gestation revealed a karyotype of 47,XY,+9[5]/46,XY[18], and simultaneous aCGH analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes revealed arr 9p24.3q34.3 × 2.1 (log2 ratio = 0.1) compatible with 10-15% mosaicism for trisomy 9. Interphase fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis on uncultured amniocytes revealed 9% (9/100 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 9. IUGR was noted on prenatal ultrasound. The pregnancy was carried to 38 weeks of gestation, and a 2375-g phenotypically normal male baby was delivered. The karyotypes of umbilical cord, cord blood and placenta were 46,XY (40/40 cells), 47,XY,+9[1]/46,XY[39] and 47,XY,+9[12]/46,XY[28], respectively. QF-PCR assays on placenta showed trisomy 9 of maternal origin. When follow-up at age two months, the neonate was normal in development. The peripheral blood had a karyotype of 46,XY (40/40 cells), and the buccal mucosal cells had 7.5% (8/106 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 9 by interphase FISH analysis. CONCLUSION Low-level mosaic trisomy 9 at amniocentesis can be associated with a favorable fetal outcome and cytogenetic discrepancy between cultured amniocytes and uncultured amniocytes.

OBJECTIVE We present low-level mosaic trisomy 15 without uniparental disomy (UPD) 15 in a pregnancy associated with cytogenetic discrepancy between uncultured amniocytes and cultured amniocytes, a favorable fetal outcome and perinatal decrease of the aneuploid cell line. CASE REPORT A 40-year-old, gravida 2, para 0, woman underwent amniocentesis at 16 weeks of gestation because advanced maternal age. This pregnancy was conceived by in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 47,XX,+15 [7]/46,XX [43]. Simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes revealed arr (15) × 2-3 (X) × 2 with 14% mosaicism for trisomy 15, and ME028 multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) methylation test excluded UPD 15. Prenatal ultrasound and parental karyotypes were normal. She was referred for genetic counseling, and repeat amniocentesis performed at 28 weeks of gestation revealed 46, XX (20/20 colonies) in cultured amniocytes, and in uncultured amniocytes, interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) showed 13.7% (16/117 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 15, aCGH analysis revealed arr [GRCh(hg19)] 15q11.22q26.3 (22, 765, 628-102,256,748) × 2.4 with a log2 ratio = 0.26, consistent with 40% mosaicism for trisomy 15, and quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) assays excluded UPD 15. The woman was encouraged to continue the pregnancy. At 37 weeks of gestation, a 2400-g phenotypically normal female baby was delivered without any abnormality. The cord blood had 46, XX (40/40 cells). QF-PCR assays determined maternal origin of trisomy 15 in the placenta. When follow-up at age 5 months, the neonate was normal in physical and psychomotor development. FISH analysis on 102 buccal mucosal cells detected 2 cells (2%, 2/102 cells) with trisomy 15 signals, compared with 1% in normal control. CONCLUSIONS Low-level mosaic trisomy 15 at amniocentesis without UPD 15 can be a transient and benign condition, and can be associated with a favorable fetal outcome and perinatal decrease of the aneuploid cell line.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present low-level mosaic trisomy 13 at amniocentesis in a pregnancy associated with associated with a favorable fetal outcome and cytogenetic discrepancy in various tissues. CASE REPORT A 38-year-old, gravida 3, para 0, woman underwent amniocentesis at 19 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age. This pregnancy was conceived by in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 47,XX,+13[2]/ 46,XX[20] in co-twin A and a karyotype of 46,XY in co-twin B. In co-twin A, among 22 colonies of cultured amniocytes, two colonies had a karyotype of 47,XX,+13, whereas the rest 20 colonies had the karyotype of 46,XX. Array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on the DNA extracted from cultured amniocytes revealed arr (1-22,X) × 2, Y × 0 and detected no genomic imbalance. Prenatal ultrasound and parental karyotypes were normal. Quantitative fluorescence polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) analysis on the DNA extracted from the parental bloods and cultured amniocytes excluded uniparental disomy (UPD) 13. The woman was encouraged to continue the pregnancy. At 37 weeks of gestation, a normal 2410-g female co-twin A and a normal 2360-g male co-twin B were delivered without any phenotypic abnormality. The karyotypes of cord blood, umbilical cord and placenta of co-twin A were 46,XX (40/40 cells), 47,XX,+13 [1]/46,XX[39] and 47,XX,+13[36]/46,XX [4], respectively. QF-PCR analysis on cord blood of co-twin A excluded UPD 13. When follow-up at age 1½ years, the neonate of co-twin A was normal in physical and psychomotor development. CONCLUSION Low-level true mosaic trisomy 13 at amniocentesis can be associated with a favorable fetal outcome and cytogenetic discrepancy in various tissues.

CASE REPORT A 32-year-old, primigravid woman underwent amniocentesis at 18 weeks of gestation because of an increased nuchal translucency thickness of 3 mm in the first trimester sonographic screening. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 47,XX,+17 [2]/46,XX [20]. Among 22 colonies of cultured amniocytes, two colonies had a karyotype of 47,XX,+17, whereas the rest 20 colonies had a karyotype of 46,XX. Simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes revealed arr (1-22,X) × 2 with no genomic imbalance. Prenatal ultrasound and parental karyotypes were normal. Quantitative fluorescence polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) analysis on the DNA extracted from the parental bloods and cultured amniocytes excluded uniparental disomy (UPD) 17. The woman was encouraged to continue the pregnancy. A normal 3178-g female baby was delivered at 38 weeks of gestation without any phenotypic abnormalities. The karyotypes of cord blood, umbilical cord and placenta were all 46, XX (40/40 cells). When follow-up at age six months, the neonate was normal in physical and psychosomatic development. CONCLUSION Low-level mosaic trisomy 17 at amniocentesis can be a transient and benign condition, and can be associated with a favorable fetal outcome and cytogenetic discrepancy between cultured and uncultured amniocytes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present an infertile male who was incidentally detected to have Klinefelter syndrome, a balanced reciprocal translocation of t(4; 17) (q12; q11.2) and an AZFa sY86 deletion. We review the literature and discuss the significance of 47,XXY, t(4; 17) (q12; q11.2) and AZFa sY86 deletion in this case. CASE REPORT A 37-year-old married infertile male was referred for genetic studies of azoospermia. His height was 195 cm and his weight was 85 kg. He had been married for more than one year without any pregnancy in his wife. He was referred for genetic counseling. Cytogenetic analysis revealed a karyotype of 47,XXY,t(4; 17) (q12; q11.2). In addition to Klinefelter syndrome, a balanced reciprocal translocation and an AZFa microdeletion were found. Sequence analysis of SPINK2 and NOS was also performed. These two fertile related genes were located at the breakpoints of translocation respectively. Heterozygosity of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) evidenced the presence of two alleles as well as no deletions occurred at the breakpoint regions. An AZF gene analysis revealed a microdeletion at the region of AZFa sY86 region. CONCLUSION Genetic analysis of an infertile male may detect multiple factors associated with azoospermia such as translocation, an AZF deletion and Klinefelter syndrome. This case emphasized the importance of tests for chromosomes and AZF deletions among patients with azoospermia. Complete genetic counseling of the consequence of a familial inheritance is also necessary to detect more family carrier members for the prevention of unbalanced chromosome in the offspring.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present mosaic 46,XY,dup (14) (q12q22.3)/46, XY at amniocentesis in a pregnancy associated with a favorable fetal outcome and cytogenetic discrepancy in various tissues. CASE REPORT A 41-year-old, primigravid woman underwent amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age. This pregnancy was conceived by in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer. Cytogenetic analysis on cultured amniocytes revealed a karyotype of 46,XY, dup (14) (q12q22.3)[7]/46,XY [13], and simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes revealed arr 14q12q22.3 × 2-3 with 25% mosaicism for partial 14q duplication. She was referred for genetic counseling. Prenatal ultrasound and parental karyotypes were normal. Repeat amniocentesis at 22 weeks of gestation revealed a karyotype of 46,XY,dup (14) (q12q22.3)[6]/46,XY [14], and in uncultured amniocytes, quantitative fluorescence polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) analysis excluded uniparental disomy (UPD) 14, aCGH revealed arr 14q12q22.3 × 2.3 with 30% mosaicism for dup (14) (q12q22.3), and interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) showed 19.4% (24/124 cells) mosaicism for partial 14q duplication. She was encouraged to continue the pregnancy, and a 2450-g phenotypically normal male baby was delivered at 40 weeks of gestation. The karyotypes of cord blood, umbilical cord and placenta were 46,XY,dup (14) (q12q22.3)[14]/46,XY [26], 46,XY,dup (14) (q12q22.3)[7]/46,XY [33] and 46,XY,dup (14) (q12q22.3)[3]/46,XY [37], respectively. When follow-up at age four months, the neonate was phenotypically normal. The karyotype of peripheral blood was 46,XY,dup (14) (q12q22.3)[27]/46,XY [13], and interphase FISH analysis on 105 buccal mucosal cells detected partial 14q duplication signals in 5 cells (4.8% mosaicism). When follow-up at age nine months, the neonate was phenotypically normal. The karyotype of peripheral blood was 46,XY,dup (14) (q12q22.3)[25]/46,XY [15]. CONCLUSION Mosaic dup (14) (q12q22.3) with a normal cell line at amniocentesis may be a benign condition, and can be associated with a favorable fetal outcome and cytogenetic discrepancy in various tissues.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present mosaic 45,X/46, XX at amniocentesis with high-level mosaicism for 45,X in a pregnancy with a favorable fetal outcome and postnatal decrease of the 45,X cell line. CASE REPORT A 20-year-old, primigravid woman underwent amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation because of the non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) result of -4.82 Z score in sex chromosome at 12 weeks of gestation suggestive of Turner syndrome in the fetus. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 45,X [18]/46,XX [15], and simultaneous multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes showed mosaic Turner syndrome. Prenatal ultrasound and parental karyotypes were normal. She was referred for genetic counseling at 24 weeks of gestation, and continuing pregnancy was encouraged. At 39 weeks of gestation, a 2550-g phenotypically normal female baby was delivered. The karyotypes of cord blood, umbilical cord and placenta were 45,X [24]/46,XX [16], 45,X [23]/46,XX [17] and 45,X [28]/46,X,del(X) (q23)[12], respectively. When follow-up at age two months, the neonate was phenotypically normal in development. The peripheral blood had a karyotypes of 45,X [16]/46,XX [24]. Interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis on 103 buccal mucosal cells showed normal disomy X signals in all cells. CONCLUSION High-level mosaicism for 45,X in 45,X/46, XX at amniocentesis can be associated with a favorable fetal outcome, cytogenetic discrepancy in various tissues, and postnatal decrease of the 45,X cell line.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present mosaic trisomy 21 at amniocentesis in a twin pregnancy associated with a favorable fetal outcome, maternal uniparental disomy (UPD) 21 and postnatal decrease of the trisomy 21 cell line. CASE REPORT A 36-year-old woman underwent elective amniocentesis at 16 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age, and an abnormal non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) result suggesting trisomy 21. Amniocentesis revealed the karyotype of 46, XX in co-twin A and the karyotype of 47,XY,+21[12]/46,XY[21] in co-twin B in the cultured amniocytes by in situ culture method. Simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on uncultured amniocytes revealed the result of arr (21) × 3 [0.40] in co-twin B, consistent with 40% mosaicism for trisomy 21. Prenatal ultrasound was unremarkable, and the parental karyotypes were normal. Following genetic counseling, the parents decided to continue the pregnancy. At 36 weeks of gestation, a 2140-g female co-twin A and a 1800-g male co-twin B were delivered without any phenotypical abnormality. The karyotypes of the umbilical cord and placenta of co-twin B were 47,XY,+21[16]/46,XY[24] and 47,XY,+21 (40/40 cells), respectively. Quantitative fluorescence polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) analysis on the DNA extracted from parental bloods and umbilical cord, cord blood and placenta and peripheral blood at age five months of co-twin B confirmed a maternal origin of trisomy 21 and maternal uniparental isodisomy 21. aCGH analysis on the cord blood revealed the result of arr 21q11.2q22.3 × 2.25 consistent with 20%-25% (log2 ratio = 0.15-0.2) mosaicism for trisomy 21. When follow-up at age five months, the co-twin B was phenotypically normal. His peripheral blood had a karyotype of 47,XY,+21[3]/46,XY[37]. Interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) on 100 buccal mucosal cells detected no trisomy 21 signals. The peripheral blood had uniparental isodisomy 21. CONCLUSION Mosaic trisomy 21 at amniocentesis can be a transient and benign condition and should alert the possibility of UPD 21. The abnormal trisomy 21 cell line in mosaic trisomy 21 at amniocentesis may decrease and disappear after birth.

CASE REPORT A 34-year-old primigravid woman underwent amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 46,XY,add(15)(p12)[17]/46,XY[5]. A second amniocentesis at 19 weeks of gestation revealed a karyotype of 46,XY,der(15)t(6;15)(q25.1;p12)[12]/46,XY[8], and array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes revealed arr arr 6q25.1q27×2-3 with 40% mosaic level. She was referred for genetic counseling. Prenatal ultrasound and the parental karyotypes were normal. A third amniocentesis at 24 weeks of gestation revealed a karyotype of 46,XY,der(15)t(6;15)(q25.1;p12)[23]/46,XY[1], and in uncultured amniocytes, aCGH analysis revealed arr 6q25.1q27×2.5, interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) revealed 51% mosaicism (51/100 cells) for partial trisomy 6q and quantitative fluorescence polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) analysis determined maternal origin of the aberrant chromosome and excluded uniparental disomy (UPD) 15 and UPD 6. A fourth amniocentesis at 27 weeks of gestation revealed a karyotype of 46,XY,der(15)t(6;15)(q25.1;p12)[21]/46,XY[5], and in uncultured amniocytes, aCGH analysis revealed arr 6q25.1q27×2.46, and interphase FISH revealed 35% mosaicism (35/100 cells) for partial trisomy 6q. At 39 weeks of gestation, a healthy 3028-g male baby was delivered without any phenotypic abnormality. The karyotypes of cord blood, umbilical cord and placenta were 46,XY,der(15)t(6;15)(q25.1;p12)[2]/46,XY,der(15)t(6;15)(q25.1;p12)[29]/46,XY[11] and 46,XY, respectively. When follow-up at age one month, the neonate was phenotypically normal, the peripheral blood had a karyotype of 46,XY (40/40 cells), and FISH analysis on 105 buccal mucosal cells detected five cells with partial trisomy 6q compared with 2% mosaicism (2/100 cells) in the normal control. CONCLUSION Mosaicism for an unbalanced translocation with a normal cell line without UPD at amniocentesis can be a transient and benign condition, and can be associated with a favorable fetal outcome and postnatal decrease of the aneuploid cell line.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present mosaic tetrasomy 9p at amniocentesis in a pregnancy associated with a favorable fetal outcome, perinatal progressive decrease of the aneuploid cell line and cytogenetic discrepancy in various tissue. CASE REPORT A 33-year-old primigravid woman underwent elective amniocentesis at 18 weeks of gestation because of anxiety, and the karyotype of cultured amniocytes was 47,XX,+i (9) (p10)[20]/46,XX [55]. Cordocentesis was performed at 20 weeks of gestation, and the karyotype of cord blood was 47,XX,+i (9) (p10)[7]/46,XX [15]. She was referred for genetic counseling at 23 weeks of gestation, and repeat amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 47,XX,+i (9) (p10)[1]/46,XX [16] with seven cells in one colony having tetrasomy 9p in cultured amniocytes, and in uncultured amniocytes, quantitative fluorescence polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) analysis excluded uniparental disomy (UPD) 9 and determined paternal origin of the extra i (9p), array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes revealed arr 9p24.3p13.1 × 3.0 consistent with 50% mosaicism for tetrasomy 9p, and interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) on uncultured amniocytes showed 22.6% (12/53 cells) mosaicism for tetrasomy 9p. A third amniocentesis at 27 weeks of gestation revealed a karyotype of 46, XX (10/10 colonies) in cultured amniocytes, and interphase FISH analysis on uncultured amniocytes revealed 20% (20/100 cells) mosaicism for tetrasomy 9p. The parental karyotypes and prenatal ultrasound were normal. At 39 weeks of gestation, a phenotypically normal 3388-g female baby was delivered. The karyotypes of cord blood, umbilical cord and placenta were 47,XX,+idic (9) (q12)[19]/46,XX [21] or 47,XX,+idic (9) (pter→q12:q12→pter)[19]/46,XX [21], 47,XX,+idic (9) (q12)[1]/46,XX [39] and 47,XX,+idic (9) (q12)[4]/46,XX [36], respectively. When follow-up at age two months, the neonate was phenotypically normal, the peripheral blood had a karyotype of 47,XX,+idic (9) (q12)[18]/46,XX [22], and interphase FISH analysis on 100 buccal mucosal cells revealed 1% (1/100 cells) mosaicism for tetrasomy 9p. When follow-up at age seven months, the neonate was phenotypically normal, and the peripheral blood had a karyotype of 47,XX,+idic(9)(q12)[14]/46,XX[26]. CONCLUSION Mosaic tetrasomy 9p at amniocentesis can be a transient and benign condition, and can be associated with a favorable fetal outcome and perinatal progressive decrease of the aneuploid cell line and cytogenetic discrepancy in various tissue.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present molecular cytogenetic characterization of de novo concomitant distal 8p deletion of 8p23.3p23.1 and Xp and Xq deletion of Xp22.13q28 due to an unbalanced X;8 translocation detected by amniocentesis. CASE REPORT A 33-year-old primigravid woman underwent amniocentesis at 18 weeks of gestation because of a Down syndrome risk of 1/52 at the first-trimester maternal serum screening calculated from 0.29 multiples of the median (MoM) of pregnancy associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A), 1.14 MoM of free β-hCG and 0.46 MoM of placental growth factor (PlGF). Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 45,X,add(8)(p23.1). The parental karyotypes were normal. Array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on the DNA extracted from cultured amniocytes revealed a 137-Mb deletion of Xp22.13q28 and a 10.53-Mb deletion of 8p23.3p23.1. The karyotype thus was 45,X,der(8)t(X;8)(p22.13;p23.1). Prenatal ultrasound revealed pericardial effusion and skin edema. The pregnancy was subsequently terminated, and a 568-g malformed fetus was delivered with hypertelorism and low-set ears. The cord blood had a karyotype of 45,X,der(8)t(X;8)(p22.13;p23.1). aCGH analysis of the cord blood revealed the result of arr [GRCH37 (hg19)] 8p23.3p23.1 (191,530-10,724,642) × 1.0, arr Xp22.13q28 (18,194,098-155,232,907) × 1.0. CONCLUSION aCGH analysis is useful elucidating the genetic nature of an aberrant chromosome with an additional maternal of unknown origin attached to a chromosome terminal region.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present molecular cytogenetic characterization of de novo concomitant proximal 21q deletion of 21q11.2q21.3 and distal Xp deletion of Xp22.33p22.2 due to an unbalanced X; 21 translocation detected by amniocentesis. CASE REPORT A 35-year-old, primigravid woman underwent amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 45,X,der(X)t(X; 21) (p22.2; q21.3),-21. Simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) revealed the result of an 11.9-Mb Xp22.33p22.2 deletion encompassing HCCS, SHOX, AMELX and OFD1 and a 15.4-Mb 21q11.2q21.3 deletion encompassing NRIP1 and APP. The pregnancy was subsequently terminated, and a malformed fetus was delivered with craniofacial dysmorphism. The parental karyotypes were normal. Polymorphic DNA marker analysis by quantitative fluorescence polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) confirmed a paternal origin of the 21q proximal deletion. Cytogenetic analysis of cord blood confirmed the karyotype of 45,X,der(X)t(X; 21) (p22.2; q21.3),-21. aCGH analysis of the cord blood confirmed the prenatal diagnosis. CONCLUSION QF-PCR analysis is useful for determination of the parental origin of a de novo unbalanced X; autosome translocation detected by prenatal diagnosis. The information acquired is useful for genetic counseling under such a circumstance.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present mosaic trisomy 21 at amniocentesis associated with a favorable fetal outcome and perinatal progressive decrease of the trisomy 21 cell line. CASE REPORT A 33-year-old woman underwent elective amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation because of anxiety, and the karyotype of cultured amniocytes was 47,XX,+21[4]/46,XX[13]. In 17 colonies of cultured amniocytes, four colonies had 47,XX,+21, while the other 13 colonies had 46,XX. Simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on uncultured amniocytes revealed the result of arr (21) × 3 [0.32] consistent with 32% mosaicism for trisomy 21. Repeat amniocentesis performed at 25 weeks of gestation revealed 47,XX,+21[4]/46,XX[24] with four colonies of 47,XX,+21 and 24 colonies of 46, XX on cultured amniocytes, and arr 21q11.2q22.3 × 2.25 by aCGH, 19.2% mosaicism for trisomy 21 (20/104 cells) by interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), and no uniparental disomy (UPD) 21 by quantitative fluorescence polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) on uncultured amniocytes. The parental karyotypes were normal, and prenatal ultrasound was unremarkable. A phenotypically normal 2815-g female baby was delivered at 38 weeks of gestation. Cytogenetic analysis on the cord blood, umbilical cord and placenta revealed the karyotype of 47,XX,+21[10]/46,XX[30]. 47,XX,+21[5]/46,XX[35] and 47,XX,+21[38]/46,XX[2], respectively. QF-PCR analysis on the DNA extracted from parental bloods, uncultured amniocytes, cord blood, umbilical cord and placenta confirmed a paternal origin of trisomy 21. When follow-up at age two months, the neonate was phenotypically normal, the peripheral blood had a karyotype of 47,XX,+21[6]/46,XX[34], and no trisomy 21 signals by interphase FISH was found on 100 buccal mucosal cells. When follow-up at age 13 months, the neonate was phenotypically normal, and the peripheral blood had a karyotype of 47,XX,+21[3]/46,XX[37]. CONCLUSION Mosaic trisomy 21 at amniocentesis can be a transient and benign condition, and the abnormal trisomy 21 cell line may decrease and disappear after birth.

OBJECTIVE We present detection of mosaicism for 46,X,i(Y) (q10) in the blood lymphocytes in a phenotypically normal male neonate with prenatally detected 45,X/46, XY at amniocentesis and cytogenetic discrepancy in various tissues. CASE REPORT A 35-year-old, gravida 2, para 1, woman underwent amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 45,X [8]/46,XY [15]. Simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) on uncultured amniocytes revealed the result of arr (Y) × 0-1 with 25.493-Mb mosaic deletion of chromosome Yp11.31-q11.23. Prenatal ultrasound findings were unremarkable. The fetus had normal male external genitalia on fetal ultrasound. Following genetic counseling, the pregnancy was carried to 38 weeks of gestation, and a phenotypically normal male baby was delivered without any abnormalities of the male external genitalia. The cord blood had a karyotypes of 46,X,i(Y) (q10)[8]/45,X[3]/46,XY [29], and placenta had a karyotypes of 45,X [25]/46,X,i(Y) (q10)[7]/46,XY [8]. When follow-up at age two months, the neonate was normal in development. The peripheral blood had a karyotypes of 46,X,i(Y) (q10)[8]/45,X[5]/46,XY [27]. Interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis on 101 buccal mucosal cells showed normal X and Y signals in 101/101 cells. CONCLUSION Fetuses with 45,X/46, XY at amniocentesis can be associated with mosaicism for 46,X,i(Y) (q10) in the blood lymphocytes, cytogenetic discrepancy in various tissues and a favorable outcome.

OBJECTIVE We present progressive increase of the mosaic level for 45,X in 45,X/46, XX at different amniocenteses and postnatal progressive decrease of the 45,X cell line in a mosaic 45,X/46, XX fetus with a favorable outcome. CASE REPORT A 35-year-old, primigravid woman underwent amniocentesis at 16 weeks of gestation because of the advanced maternal age. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 45,X [6]/46,XX [14]. Among 20 colonies of cultured amniocytes, six colonies had a karyotype of 45,X, whereas the other 14 colonies had a karyotype of 46,XX. Simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) on uncultured amniocytes revealed the result of arr [GRCh37] (X) × 1 [0.42] (1-22) × 2. Prenatal ultrasound findings were unremarkable. Repeat amniocentesis at 33 weeks of gestation revealed a karyotype of 45,X [13]/46,XX [7]. Among 20 colonies of cultured amniocytes, 13 colonies had a karyotype of 45,X, whereas the other seven colonies had a karyotype of 46,XX. Simultaneous interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis on 100 uncultured amniocytes revealed that 44 cells had monosomy X consistent with 44% mosaicism for 45,X, whereas the rest cells had disomy X. At 38 weeks of gestation, a 2675-g phenotypically normal female baby was delivered. The karyotypes of cord blood, umbilical cord and placenta were 45,X [12]/46,XX [28], 45,X [12]/46,XX [28] and 46,XX [40/40], respectively. When follow-up at age three months, the neonate was normal in development. The karyotypes of peripheral blood was 45,X [4]/46,XX [36], and interphase FISH analysis on 100 buccal mucosal cells showed monosomy X in 11 cells consistent with 11% mosaicism for 45,X, whereas the rest cells had disomy X. CONCLUSION Progressive increase of the mosaic level for 45,X in 45,X/46, XX at different amniocenteses can be associated with a favorable outcome and postnatal progressive decrease of the 45,X cell line.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present prenatal diagnosis of mosaic trisomy 18 by amniocentesis associated with a favorable fetal outcome in a pregnancy. CASE REPORT A 42-year-old, gravida 4, para 2, woman underwent amniocentesis at 18 weeks of gestation because advanced maternal age. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 47,XX,+18[6]/46,XX[17]. Simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) on uncultured amniocytes showed the result of 45% mosaicism for trisomy 18. At 25 weeks of gestation, the woman underwent repeat amniocentesis which revealed a karyotype of 47,XX,+18[10]/46,XX[24]. Simultaneous aCGH on uncultured amniocytes showed the result of arr 18p11.32q23 (148,963-78,012,829) × 2.3 [GRCh (hg19)] with a log2 ratio of 0.2-0.25 compatible with 30-38% mosaicism for trisomy 18. The parental karyotypes were normal. Prenatal ultrasound was unremarkable. Interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) on uncultured amniocytes showed 27% (27/100 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 18. Quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) on uncultured amniocytes excluded uniparental disomy (UPD) 18. Non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) analysis at 34 weeks of gestation revealed a significant gene dosage increase of chromosome 18 (29.95; normal control: -3.0-3.0). At 39 weeks of gestation, a 2840-g phenotypically normal baby was delivered. The cord blood had a karyotype of 47,XX,+18[8]/46,XX[32]. The placenta was trisomy 18 of maternal origin. The umbilical cord had a karyotype of 47,XX,+18[2]/46,XX[38]. At age 1½ months, the peripheral blood had a karyotype of 47,XX,+18[5]/46,XX[35], and FISH analysis on buccal mucosal cells revealed 2% (2/102 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 18. When follow-up at age seven months, the neonate was phenotypically normal, and the peripheral blood had a karyotype of 47,XX,+18[1]/46,XX[39]. CONCLUSIONS Mosaic trisomy 18 at amniocentesis without abnormal fetal ultrasound can be associated with a favorable outcome, and the abnormal trisomy 18 cell line may decrease progressively after birth.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present prenatal diagnosis of pseudomosaicism for trisomy 20 at amniocentesis with a negative non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) result in a pregnancy with a favorable outcome. CASE REPORT A 33-year-old, primigravid woman underwent amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation, which revealed a karyotype of 47,XX,+20[8]/46,XX[31]. Simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes revealed the result of arr (1-22,X) × 2, consistent with no genomic imbalance. She was referred to the hospital for repeat amniocentesis at 23 weeks of gestation. At repeat amniocentesis, cultured amniocytes had a karyotype of 47,XX,+20[2]/46,XX[33]. The parental karyotypes were normal. Simultaneous aCGH analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes using SurePrint G3 Unrestricted CGH ISCA v2, 8 × 60 K (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA) revealed no genomic imbalance, or arr (1-22,X) × 2, Y × 0. Interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis using the bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) probes of RP11-266K16 [20q13.33; fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), spectrum green] and RP11-348I14 (20q11.1-q11.21; Texas Red, spectrum red) detected trisomy 20 signals in 4/104 uncultured amniocytes (3.8%), compared with 0/100 in the normal control. Polymorphic DNA marker analysis using the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes and parental bloods excluded uniparental disomy 20. NIPT analysis on maternal blood revealed a negative result without gene dosage increase in chromosome 20. The pregnancy was carried to term, and a healthy 2830-g female baby was delivered with no phenotypic abnormality. Both cord blood and placenta had a karyotype of 46,XX. CONCLUSION NIPT is useful for rapid differential diagnosis of pseudomosaicism from true mosaicism in case of mosaic trisomy 20 at amniocentesis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present prenatal diagnosis of mosaic trisomy 18 in a pregnancy with a favorable fetal outcome and maternal uniparental disomy 18. CASE REPORT A 38-year-old, primigravid woman underwent the first amniocentesis at 16 weeks of gestation because advanced maternal age. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 46,XX [22/22] in cultured amniocytes, and 36% mosaicism for trisomy 18 and a maternally inherited Xp22.31 microdeletion by array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) in uncultured amniocytes. The second amniocentesis at 18 weeks of gestation revealed 47,XX,+18 [14]/46,XX [36] in cultured amniocytes and 36% mosaicism for trisomy 18 by multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) P095 in cultured amniocytes. Prenatal ultrasound was normal. The parents were phenotypically normal. The third amniocentesis at 23 weeks of gestation revealed 47,XX,+18 [3]/46,XX [17] in cultured amniocytes, and in uncultured amniocytes, aCGH revealed 45%-50% mosaicism for trisomy 18, interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) revealed 36% (36/100 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 18, and quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) showed mosaic maternal uniparental heterodisomy for chromosome 18 and mosaic trisomy 18 of maternal origin. The fourth amniocentesis at 32 weeks of gestation revealed a karyotype of 46,XX [20/20] in cultured amniocytes, and in uncultured amniocytes, aCGH revealed 50%-60% mosaicism for trisomy 18, FISH revealed 21.8% (22/101 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 18, and non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) showed chromosome 18 gene dosage increase in the maternal blood. At 34 weeks of gestation, a 1480-g phenotypically normal baby was delivered. The cord blood had 47,XX,+18 [10]/46,XX [30]. The umbilical cord had 47,XX,+18 [4]/46,XX [36]. The placenta had 47,XX,+18 [40/40], and QF-PCR analysis confirmed trisomy 18 of maternal origin. When follow-up at age four months, the neonate was phenotypically normal, FISH analysis on buccal mucosal cells revealed 2% (2/100 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 18, and the peripheral blood had 47,XX,+18 [18]/46,XX [22]. When follow-up at age eight months, the neonate had normal development, the peripheral blood had 47,XX,+18 [15]/46,XX [25], and the buccal mucosal cells showed maternal uniparental heterodisomy for chromosome 18. CONCLUSION Cytogenetic discrepancy may occur between uncultured and cultured amniocytes in mosaic trisomy 18 at amniocentesis. Cultured amniocytes may present progressive decrease in the levels of mosaicism for trisomy 18 as the fetus grows. Mosaic trisomy 18 at amniocentesis can be associated with a favorable outcome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present prenatal diagnosis of mosaic trisomy 15 in a pregnancy with a favorable outcome. CASE REPORT A 33-year-old, primigravid woman underwent amniocentesis at 19 weeks of gestation because non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) revealed gene dosage increase at chromosome 15. Cytogenetic analysis revealed a karyotype of 47,XX,+15[10]/46,XX[13]. Using uncultured amniocytes, array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) revealed arr [GRCh37] (X) × 2, (15) × 3 [0.75], multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) analysis showed rsa [GRCh36] 15q11q13 (21,362,818-27,196,819) × 3 [0.76] and methylation-specific (MS)-MLPA analysis showed a methylation index = 0.41 with paternal gene dosage increase at 15q11-q13. Repeat amniocentesis at 25 weeks of gestation revealed a karyotype of 47,XX,+15[6]/46,XX[14]. Using uncultured amniocytes, quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) assays excluded uniparental disomy (UPD) 15 and determined a paternal origin of the extra chromosome 15, aCGH analysis showed 75%-80% mosaicism for trisomy 15, and interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) showed 45.5% (46/101 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 15. Repeat amniocentesis at 28 weeks of gestation revealed a karyotype of 47,XX,+15[2]/46,XX[23]. Using uncultured amniocytes, aCGH showed 75-80% mosaicism for trisomy 15, and FISH showed 70.6% (72/102 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 15. Using cultured amniocytes, QF-PCR assays excluded UPD 15. Cordocentesis at 30 weeks of gestation revealed a karyotype of 47,XX,+15[2]/46,XX[138]. Using cord blood, aCGH revealed 9% gene dosage increase at chromosome 15, and MS-MLPA analysis excluded UPD 15. At 36 weeks of gestation, a 2060-g phenotypically normal baby was delivered. The cord blood had 46, XX (40/40 cells). The placenta had 47,XX,+15 (40/40 cells). QF-PCR analysis on placenta showed a paternal origin of trisomy 15. FISH analysis on buccal mucosal cells at age 20 days showed 20% (20/100 cells) mosaicism for trisomy 15. CONCLUSION Cytogenetic discrepancy may occur between uncultured and cultured amniocytes in mosaic trisomy 15 at amniocentesis. Cultured amniocytes may present progressive decrease in the levels of mosaicism for trisomy 15 as the fetus grows. Mosaic trisomy 15 at amniocentesis without UPD 15 can be associated with a favorable outcome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present prenatal diagnosis of high-level mosaicism for 45,X in 45,X/46,XX at amniocentesis in a pregnancy with a favorable outcome and postnatal progressive decrease of the 45,X cell line. CASE REPORT A 32-year-old, gravida 2, para 1, woman underwent amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation because of the abnormal first-trimester maternal serum screening result indicating a 1/34 risk for Down syndrome. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 45,X[27]/46,XX[15]. Simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) on uncultured amniocytes revealed 12% mosaicism for monosomy X. Prenatal ultrasound was normal. The pregnancy was carried to term, and a 2780-g phenotypically normal female baby was delivered. The cord blood had a karyotype of 45,X[12]/46,XX[28]. At age one month, the peripheral blood had a karyotype of 45,X[13]/46,XX[27]. Interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis on the buccal mucosal cells revealed 2% (2/102 cells) mosaicism for monosomy X, compared with 1% (1/100 cells) in the normal control. When follow-up at age one year, she was doing well with normal physical and psychomotor development. Her body weight was 9.9 Kg (50th - 85th centile), and her body height was 75 cm (50th - 85th centile). The peripheral blood had a karyotype of 45,X[4]/46,XY[36]. CONCLUSION High-level mosaicism for 45,X in 45,X/46,XX at amniocentesis can be associated with a favorable outcome and postnatal progressive decrease of the 45,X cell line.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present prenatal diagnosis of high-level mosaicism for 45,X by amniocentesis in a pregnancy with a favorable fetal outcome. CASE REPORT A 35-year-old, gravida 2, para 1, woman underwent amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 45,X[13]/46,XY[11]. Simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) on uncultured amniocytes revealed the result of Yp11.3q11.21 × 0-1 [0.1], Yq11.21q11.23 × 0-1 [0.6]. At 19 weeks of gestation, she underwent the second amniocentesis which revealed a karyotype of 45,X[13]/46,XY[12], and aCGH and multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) on uncultured amniocytes showed 37% mosaicism for Y-deleted cells. At 28 weeks of gestation, she underwent the third amniocentesis which revealed a karyotype of 45,X[25]/46,XY[25], and aCGH on uncultured amniocytes revealed the result of Yq11.21q11.23 × 0.5, Yq11.23q12 × 0.7. Interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis on uncultured amniocytes revealed that 16.67% (20/120 cells) were Y-deleted cells. The parental karyortypes and prenatal ultrasound were normal. At 37 weeks of gestation, a 2707-g phenotypically normal male baby was delivered with normal male external genitalia. The karyotypes of cord blood, umbilical cord and placenta were 45,X[25]/46,XY[15], 45,X[18]/46,XY[22] and 45,X[25]/46,XY[15], respectively. When follow-up at age five months, the neonate was normal in external genitalia and physical development. The peripheral blood had a karyotype of 45,X[29]/46,XY[11], and FISH analysis on 100 buccal mucosal cells showed no abnormal signals. When follow-up at age 11 months, the neonate was physically normal, and the peripheral blood had a karyotype of 45,X[17]/46,XY[23]. CONCLUSION High-level mosaicism for 45,X in 45,X/46, XY at amniocentesis can be associated with a favorable fetal outcome despite the presence of cytogenetic discrepancy in various tissues.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We present a false-positive result at non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) due to maternal 17p12 microduplication. CASE REPORT A 37-year-old, gravida 2, para 1, woman underwent amniocentesis at 19 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 46,XY. Simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) revealed the result of a 1.3-Mb duplication of 17p12 or arr [GRCh37] 17p12 (14,111,772-15,442,066) × 3 encompassing four Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) genes of COX10, HS3ST3B1, PMP22 and TEKT3. The mother did not have any neurologic problems. The parents were phenotypically normal. aCGH analysis of maternal blood revealed that the mother carried the same 17p12 microduplication. Two years ago, NIPT analysis during her first pregnancy revealed abnormality of chromosome 17 with 17p11.2p12 duplication. However, subsequent aCGH analysis at amniocentesis revealed no genomic imbalance in the fetus, and no further examination of the parental bloods was made. During this pregnancy, prenatal ultrasound was unremarkable, and the parents decided to continue the pregnancy. CONCLUSION A false-positive result at NIPT should raise a suspicion of maternal genomic imbalance.
