Rapid identification of a small dicentric supernumerary marker derived from chromosome 16 with a modified FISH technique on amniotic fluid

Abstract: Small supernumerary marker chromosomes are seldom found in prenatal diagnosis and the majority of them are difficult to identify. The only possibility to give a more precise prognosis is by establishing its origin. FISH is the best technique to identify the chromosomal origin, but in the majority of cases large amounts of chromosomal material are needed and this is time consuming. We have used a modification of the FISH technique that allows the hybridization of several probes on one slide. Using this method, … Show more

“…In addition, cytogenetic analysis followed by FISH studies made it possible for identification of small de novo structural anomalies and marker chromosomes unidentifiable by G-banding. Furthermore, it could give much better insights to the relation between genotype and phenotype and results using FISH provided a much better understanding for fetal anomalies (19)(20)(21).…”

“…The extra structural abnormal chromosome in the present case was also positive with DA/DAPI staining. Very recently, a small dicentric marker 16, detected in 20% of amnion cells and in 16% of fetal blood cells, was reported to be associated with a normal phenotype, analysed until the age of 9 months (Sanz et al, 2000).…”
