Chondrodysplasia punctata in an infant with duplication 16p due to a 7;16 translocation

Abstract: This paper describes a newborn with a number of clinical manifestations compatible with duplication 16p due to a 46, XY, -7, +der (7), t(7;16) (p22;p13) pat karyotype. In addition, the baby had chondrodysplasia punctata, whose distribution of lesions did not match any of the well-documented forms of these disorders. The baby also had microcornea and lacked a gallbladder, two features, in addition to chondrodysplasia punctata, that have not previously been noted in cases of duplication 16p.

“…In our case, the karyotype was normal: moreover, a brain malformation is not described in this form. The duplication 16 p. with chon drodysplasia punctata can also be excluded on the basis of a normal karyotype [ 11 ]. A study of the activities of peroxi somal enzymes was not done as our case did not seem to belong to the peroxisomal disease category [12.…”

“…Two patients with full trisomy of ( 16)(pter >p 13) due to familial trans location were reported in the literature; one was bom underweight (birthweight at term 2,280 g [11] while the other had a birthweight within the normal range (3,300 g at term) [12], Our propositus has both maternal UPD and mosaic trisomy for ( 16)(ptcr->p 13). His pattem of congenital anomalies resembles patients with full or partial trisomy 16p.…”

“…Since it has never been described in liveborns, it appears that complete trisomy 16 is non-viable. Reports of liveborn infants with duplication of 16p or 16q indicate that both are associated with limited postnatal survival (Roberts & Duckett 1918, Buckton & Barr 1981, McMorrow et al 1984, Nevin et al 1983, Hunter et al 1985. We report two siblings with partial duplication of 16q due to a maternal balanced translo-cation (6;16), and compare the findings in these infants with those previously reported in the literature.…”
