Alström syndrome caused by maternal uniparental disomy [PDF]
Purpose: To describe a case of Alström syndrome arising from maternal uniparental disomy. Observations: A 13-month-old boy with poor vision and nystagmus was diagnosed with Alström syndrome based on genetic testing that identified a homozygous pathogenic

A rare case of uniparental disomy 9 concomitant with low-level mosaicism [PDF]
Uniparental disomy of chromosome 9, in combination with low-level mosaicism for chromosome 9, represents a rare chromosomal disorder. One of the mechanisms underlying the formation of uniparental disomy is the trisomy rescue, which concurrently results ...

Prenatal diagnosis of paternal uniparental disomy for chromosome 2 in two fetuses with intrauterine growth restriction [PDF]
Uniparental disomy (UPD) is when all or part of the homologous chromosomes are inherited from only one of the two parents. Currently, UPD has been reported to occur for almost all chromosomes.

Cytogenetic contribution to uniparental disomy (UPD) [PDF]
Uniparental disomy (UPD) is often considered as an event to be characterized exclusively by molecular genetic or epigenetic approaches. This review shows that at least one third of UPD cases emerge in connection with or due to a chromosomal rearrangement.

Complete uniparental disomy of chromosome 1 in a child with isolated developmental delay [PDF]
Complete uniparental disomy of chromosome 1 (UPD1) is an uncommon genetic finding about which a specific phenotype has not yet been established. We present a boy who has complete paternal UPD1 and isolated developmental delay and suggest that there is no
