25. Apparent monosomy 21 owing to a ring 21 chromosome: parental origin revealed by DNA analysis.
A three and a half year old mildly retarded boy is presented. Karyotyping showed monosomy 21 (45,XY,-21) in all 50 metaphase spreads examined from two lymphocyte cultures, and in 20% of cells examined from cultured fibroblasts; the remaining 80% of cells showed a ring 21 chromosome (46,XY,r(21)(p1q22]. Molecular studies using chromosome 21 specific DNA probe

26. Monosomy 18p and pure trisomy 18p in a family with translocation (7;18).
A three generation pedigree is described in which there are two carriers of translocation t(7;18). Two members of the family have trisomy 18p and a stillborn child had monosomy 18p and holoprosencephaly. Another stillborn child probably had holoprosencephaly; the karyotype was not analysed. Based on this observation, the occasional occurrence of holoprosence

27. "Compensatory" uniparental disomy of chromosome 21 in two cases.
Two cases of growth failure, microcephaly, facial dysmorphism, muscular hypertonia, and severe psychomotor retardation are described. At birth, both cases had cytogenetic mosaicism in lymphocytes and skin fibroblasts, in case 1 ring chromosome 21 and monosomy 21 and in case 2, deletion of chromosome 21 and monosomy 21. At a later age the lymphocyte karyotype

28. A case of partial 5q trisomy associated with partial 7q monosomy.
A 1-year-old girl with partial 5q trisomy and partial 7q monosomy had ocular abnormalities that included bilateral blepharoptosis and Leber's congenital amaurosis. A single bright-flash electroretinogram (dark-adapted, white stimulation) disclosed subnormal bilateral responses. Her maculas showed a reddish spot surrounded by a broad, greyish retinal zone. Cy

29. Partial monosomy of chromosome 10 short arms.
Two children with monosomy 10p13 are reported. In the first case the monosomy was the result of a maternal balanced translocation t(3;10) (p27;p13) while the second case was a de novo mutation. We reviewed clinical details of cases reported so far and found that certain symptoms are typical of the deletion of a comparatively large segment of chromosome 10 sh

30. 21 Monosomy in a retarded female infant
A 20-month-old female infant with complete monosomy 21 is described. She has marked mental and physical retardation, antimongoloid slant, low set ears, micrognathia, syndactyly of the toes, and cardiac abnormalities. Karyotypes of fibroblasts and lymphocytes, examined with Giemsa banding, quinacrine banding, and reversed banding techniques revealed no eviden

31. Monosomy 8p: an easily overlooked syndrome.
Two patients with partial monosomy of the short arm of chromosome 8 are described. Their clinical features were very similar. Comparison with previously reported patients confirms the existence of an 8p- syndrome. The importance of cytogenetic investigations in all infants with major congenital heart defect and facial dysmorphism or microcephaly or both is s

32. Three children with partial trisomy 1q and partial monosomy 3p.
We report a kindred in which three children suffer from partial trisomy 1q and partial monosomy 3p, transmitted by a balanced translocation which is maternal in one family and paternal in the other. The clinical features of the three children are similar and include severe mental handicap and severe scoliosis in the older two.

33. Partial monosomy 12p13.1----13.3.
We describe a 27 month old female child with partial monosomy for the short arm of chromosome 12: 46,XX,del(12)(p13.1----p13.3). She differs from the eight cases described by others, in that she is less severely affected. Her main clinical features are developmental delay, protruding tongue, strabismus, slightly unusual facies, slight micrognathia, and speec

34. The Prader-Willi syndrome with a 15/3 translocation.
A de novo translocation of 15q to 3p with complete monosomy of 15p and partial monosomy of 15q was detected by trypsin banding on peripheral lymphocytes of a 5-year-old boy with Prader-Willi syndrome (severe mental retardation, dyslalia, cryptorchidism, and muscular hypotonia). The pathogenic role of chromosome 15 abnormalities in the aetiology of this syndr

35. Partial monosomy 3q in a boy with short stature, developmental delay, and mild dysmorphic features.
We describe the clinical and cytogenetic findings in a boy with an unbalanced karyotype involving monosomy for 3q27-q29. He does not resemble other reported cases of del(3q). Deletions of the long arm of chromosome 3 are extremely rare, having been reported in five cases, only two of which had terminal 3q deletions.

36. Features of di George syndrome in a child with 45,XX,-3,-22,+der(3),t(3;22)(p25;q11).
A child with an unbalanced translocation resulting in monosomy for chromosomes 22 (q11----pter) and 3(p25----pter) is described. Although no immunological dysfunction could be demonstrated, the abnormalities found are similar to those seen in the di George syndrome which has been associated with monosomy for the same region of chromosome 22.
