Full Monosomy 21: Echocardiographic Findings in the Third Molecularly Confirmed Case

Abstract: Monosomy 21 is a rare chromosomal abnormality, with only nine cases reported in the literature. Affected infants display multiple dysmorphic features as well as skeletal, ocular, pulmonary, cardiac, renal, and genitourinary abnormalities. All monosomies are lethal except monosomy 21, but not all monosomy 21 fetuses survive to term. This report describes the echocardiographic findings and the congenital heart defects associated with the third case of molecularly confirmed full monosomy 21 in the literature. The… Show more

“…A recent clinical investigation determined that the disorder of chromosome 21 monosomy also results in cardiac defects, including hypoplastic and hypertrophied left ventricle and atrial as well as ventricular septal defects (Fisher et al, 2013). Recent work in mice investigating congenital heart disease in individuals with DS exclude Chd5 from the minimal region that induces congenital heart disease upon duplication (Liu et al, 2011a).…”

“…DS and M21 are complex genetic conditions that arise from an altered dosage of genes on human chromosome 21 (Hsa21). Full M21 is rare and generally not compatible with life, with only a few cases reported in literature, and the oldest case survived for only a few days after birth [ 1 5 ]. The remaining M21 cases are partial deletion or mosaics.…”

“…There is a report of a patient who died after 3 days of life with multiple alterations including a left pulmonary artery aneurysm, decreased left ventricular function, and full monosomy 21, which was detected by karyotyping, FISH, and aCGH [Shah et al, 2010;Fisher et al, 2013]. A further report of a patient who died after the first day of life, with multiple congenital malformations, also presented with full monosomy 21 in which subtle chromosomal translocations of chromosome 21 were ruled out by FISH [Mori et al, 2004].…”
