Title / Titel Investigations with molecular cytogenetic techniques of rare and unusual chromosome aberrations
PDF Abstract (PDF, 14 KB)
Summary / Zusammenfassung The IMG constantly follows unusual chromosome aberration by applying new techniques, but also clinical follow-up. In the study year we investigated a patient with an unusual subtelomeric insertion from Germany, a patient with pseudo-monosomy 21 which turned out to be an unbalanced 18;21 translocation with deletions of segments from both chromosomes from Yugoslavia, a family with a very unusual X;21 translocation from Croatia, a highly unusual case of an insertion within with 2 homologues of one pair of chromosomes from Spain and 2 families with complex rearrangements from Brasil. In addition, we molecularly investigated 2 instances of false negative CVS results which turned out to be due to postmeiotic isochromosome formation.
