Characterization of a supernumerary marker derived from chromosome 17 by microdissection in an adult with MR/MCA

Abstract: We describe a 38-year-old adult who has a supernumerary marker chromosome in 40% of metaphase cells which was identified by reverse in situ hybridization with a DNA probe made by microdissection to be derived from chromosome 17. The breakpoints are estimated by G-banding and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) to consist of the region from 17p11.1 to proximal 17q21. The propositus displayed severe growth retardation, kyphoscoliosis, bilateral cataracts, severe calcaneovalgus deformity of the feet, dysmor… Show more

“…We found only seven reported marker chromosomes derived from chromosome 17 published in the medical literature. They differed in shape and size, and the level of mosaicism varied from 2 to 94% [10,37,40–45]. Patients manifested variable minor anomalies and mild developmental delay, similar to the phenotypes for patients with dup(17)(p11.2p12) and dup(17)(p11.2p11.2) [13–21].…”

“…sSMC (17) has only been reported in a small number of cases. Phenotypic findings in those individuals included growth delay, variable degree of developmental delay and intellectual disability, hypotonia, scoliosis, and seizures [9,23,[38][39][40]. The highly variable phenotypes reported in individuals with sSMC (17) is likely due to differences in size and level of mosaicism of the duplicated material.…”
