Chromosome 10p deletion (partial monosomy 10p) is rare chromosomal disorder. It was fi rst reported in 1970. Since then, as far as we know, about 45 patients have been described. The main feature of this syndrome are craniofacial dysmorphism, congenital heart disease, vesicoureteral abnormalities, and developmental delay. We have experienced a prenatal case of Chromosome 10p terminal deletion by doing cytogenetic study due to high Down syndrome risk on quadruple test and cleft lip on prenatal ultrasonography. Conventional cytogenetic result from cord blood was 46,XY,del(10)(p13), molecular cytogenetic techniques using bacterial artifi cial chromosome array comparative genomic hybridization and fl uorescence in situ hybridization analysis result was 46,XY,del(10)(p14)(NEBL-). To our knowledge, this karyotype may be the fi rst report in Korea. We present this case with brief review of literature.
Sarcomatoid squamous cell carcinoma (SSCC) is composed of squamous cell carcinoma element and spindle cell element, and can occur in any organ, such as the lung, skin and esophagus. But SSCC in uterine cervix is very rare. The prognosis of SSCC is poorer than squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of uterine cervix. We report here a case of SSCC of uterine cervix with a brief review of literature.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
