Simple, rapid and inexpensive quantitative fluorescent PCR method for detection of microdeletion and microduplication syndromes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Because of economic limitations, the cost-effective diagnosis of patients affected with rare microdeletion or microduplication syndromes is a challenge in developing countries.

Epilepsy phenotype in patients with Xp22.31 microduplication [PDF]

open access: yesEpilepsy and Behavior Case Reports, 2019
The clinical significance of Xp22.31 microduplication is still unclear. We describe a family in which a mother and two children have Xp22.31 microduplication associated with different forms of epilepsy and epileptiform EEG abnormalities.

12q14 microduplication: a new clinical entity reciprocal to the microdeletion syndrome? [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Medical Genomics, 2020
Background 12q14 microdeletion syndrome is characterized by low birth weight and failure to thrive, proportionate short stature and developmental delay. The opposite syndrome (microduplication) has not yet been characterized.

A report on seven fetal cases associated with 15q11‐q13 microdeletion and microduplication

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2021
Background The 15q11‐q13 region contains three breakpoints (BP1 to BP3), and copy number variations often occur in the region. Aims 15q11‐q13 microdeletion and microduplication are usually associated with Prader‐Willi and Angelman syndromes, respectively.

A Case of 17q21.31 Microduplication and 7q31.33 Microdeletion, Associated with Developmental Delay, Microcephaly, and Mild Dysmorphic Features

open access: yesCase Reports in Genetics, 2014
Concurrent cryptic microdeletion and microduplication syndromes have recently started to reveal themselves with the advent of microarray technology. Analysis has shown that low-copy repeats (LCRs) have allowed chromosome regions throughout the genome to ...

Detection of a familial 21q22.3 microduplication in a fetus associated with congenital heart defects

open access: yesTaiwanese Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2019
Objective: We present a familial 21q22.3 microduplication in a fetus associated with prenatally detected congenital heart defects (CHD). Case report: A 38-year-old woman underwent amniocentesis at 22 weeks of gestation because of sonographic findings of ...

Further support linking the 22q11.2 microduplication to an increased risk of bladder exstrophy and highlighting LZTR1 as a candidate gene

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2019
Background The bladder exstrophy‐epispadias complex (BEEC) is a congenital malformation of the bladder and urethra. The underlying causes of this malformation are still largely unknown; however, aside from environment, genetics is thought to play an ...

Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome associated with 7q11.23 microduplication: A case report

open access: yesGlobal Medical Genetics
Introduction: Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome (MRKHS) is characterized by the congenital absence of the uterus and vagina in females with 46, XX karyotype. The genetic etiology remains poorly understood.

Clinical characterization of chromosome 5q21.1–21.3 microduplication: A case report

open access: yesOpen Medicine, 2020
Chromosomal microdeletions and microduplications likely represent the main genetic etiologies for children with developmental delay or intellectual disability. Through prenatal chromosomal microarray analysis, some microdeletions or microduplications can
