Background: Co-occurrence of complex copy number variants (CNVs) is associated with more severe clinical expressivity of known syndromes. Few studies discuss diagnosis and genetic counseling for fetuses identified with multiple CNVs.

Breakpoint mapping and haplotype analysis of translocation t(1;12)(q43;q21.1) in two apparently independent families with vascular phenotypes [PDF]
Background The risk of serious congenital anomaly for de novo balanced translocations is estimated to be at least 6%. We identified two apparently independent families with a balanced t(1;12)(q43;q21.1) as an outcome of a ''Systematic Survey of Balanced ...

Detection of chromosome aberrations in metaphase and interphase tumor cells by in situ hybridization using chromosome-specific library probes [PDF]
Chromosome aberrations in two glioma cell lines were analyzed using biotinylated DNA library probes that specifically decorate chromosomes 1, 4, 7, 18 and 22 from pter to qter.

Chromosomal in situ suppression hybridization of immunologically classified mitotic cells in hematologic malignancies [PDF]
Chromosomal in situ suppression (CISS) hybridization was performed with library DNA from sorted human chromosomes 8, 9, 15, 17, 21, and 22 on immunologically stained bone marrow cells of four patients with a hematologic neoplasm, including two patients ...

Opitz C syndrome: Trigonocephaly, mental retardation and craniofacial dysmorphism
We describe a 4-year-old female child with a dysmorphic and neurological syndrome of trigonocephaly, mental and psychomotor retardation and dysmorphic facial features. The anomalies of the face were the following: slight upward palpebral fissures, ocular

Array comparative genomic hybridization and flow cytometry analysis of spontaneous abortions and mors in utero samples [PDF]
Background: It is estimated that 10-15% of all clinically recognised pregnancies result in a spontaneous abortion or miscarriage. Previous studies have indicated that in up to 50% of first trimester miscarriages, chromosomal abnormalities can be ...

Prenatal Diagnosis of Rare Familial Unbalanced Translocation of Chromosomes 7 and 12
Case Details. We report rare familial unbalanced translocation of chromosomes 7 and 12, which was diagnosed prenatally at 20+3 weeks of gestation. Woman’s partner had been tested in the past and was found to be a carrier of a balanced translocation; his ...
