Presumptive monosomy 21 with neuronal migration disorder re-diagnosed as de novo unbalanced translocation t(18p;21q) by fluorescence in situ hybridisation.
[monosomy 21]
We
present
clinical
and
cytogenetic
data
of
a
one
year
old
boy
with
partial
monosomy
for
both
21
q
and
18
p
,
resulting
from
a
de
novo
unbalanced
translocation
.
The
initial
diagnosis
of
a
seemingly
full
monosomy
21
was
revised
after
fluorescence
in
situ
hybridisation
(
FISH
)
with
whole
chromosome
painting
probes
and
a
locus-
specific
chromosome
21
probe
.
The
karyotype
was
reinterpreted
as
45
,
XY
,
der
(
18
)
t
(
18
;
21
)
(
p
11
.
2
;
q
22
.

)
,
-
21
.
This
karyotype
,
to
our
knowledge
,
has
not
been
previously
described
.
The
boy
presented
with
a
spectrum
of
clinical
features
previously
described
for
(
partial
)
monosomy
18
p
only
,
for
monosomy
21
q
only
,
or
for
both
of
these
aneusomies
.
The
radiological
finding
of
a
neuronal
migration
disorder
with
localised
polymicrogyria
(
cortical
dysplasia
)
has
not
been
described
for
either
monosomy
before
.
