“…For the different modes of origin of additional isochromosomes see also Kotzot et al 2 and an illustrative diagram in Bugge et al 1 The results of similar investigations in families with a proband with additional isochromosome 18p, 1,2 the single result on a case with a supernumerary isochromosome 8p, 3 and the cases of this report seem to suggest a common parental origin. A maternal origin is found in the overwhelming majority of cases with additional autosomal isochromosomes.…”

“…Recently published studies on the etiology of additional mono centric isochromosomes 18p [i(18p)] indicate that the majority of cases are the result of a nondisjunctional event in maternal meiosis II (Mil) immediately followed by a centromeric misdivision in meiosis or in an early postzygotic mitosis [1][2][3]. These findings are consistent with observations in trisomy 18 in which the majority of the reported cases originate from maternal meiosis II [4,5].…”

“…In the majority of cases, a maternal Mil nondisjunction was followed by a meiotic or postmeiotic centromeric misdivision. Additionally, Bugge et al [1] presented two cases with possible maternal meiosis I (MI) nondisjunction and one family with an i(18p) originating from a postmeiotic nondisjunction. Nondisjunction in paternal meiosis has rarely been identified as the cause of an autosomal trisomy.…”

“…Moreover, the cascade of meiotic and subsequent postmeiotic errors resembles those leading to an additional isochromosome 9p, 12p, or 18p subsequent to trisomy 9, 12, or 18, respectively, formed at meiosis II [24][25][26] and a combination of partial trisomy 16p and maternal UPD 16 in one case. 21 In conclusion, a minimum of three events is necessary to explain the karyotype in our patient.…”
