Title: Postmortem Diagnosis of Heart-hand Syndrome Associated With a 7p22.1p22.3 Deletion in a 16-week-old Fetus. Author: Tessier A, Callier P, LeMeur N, Frebourg T, Sabourin JC, Patrier S. Journal: Pediatr Dev Pathol; 2019; 22(2):146-151. PubMed ID: 30193563. Abstract: We report a male fetus with a 6.8 Mb deletion on chromosome 7p22.1p22.3 at 16 weeks of gestation. The fetus presented a heart-hand syndrome with great artery malposition, bilateral radial ray deficiency, a single pelvic kidney, and growth retardation. This deletion involves a minimal deleted region for cardiac malformation and the RAC1 gene, previously described in limb anomalies in mice. This fetus is the third human case with limb defects and RAC1 deletion.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
