    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: We present mosaic 46,XY,dup (14) (q12q22.3)/46, XY at amniocentesis in a pregnancy associated with a favorable fetal outcome and cytogenetic discrepancy in various tissues. CASE REPORT: A 41-year-old, primigravid woman underwent amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age. This pregnancy was conceived by in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer. Cytogenetic analysis on cultured amniocytes revealed a karyotype of 46,XY, dup (14) (q12q22.3)[7]/46,XY [13], and simultaneous array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis on the DNA extracted from uncultured amniocytes revealed arr 14q12q22.3 × 2-3 with 25% mosaicism for partial 14q duplication. She was referred for genetic counseling. Prenatal ultrasound and parental karyotypes were normal. Repeat amniocentesis at 22 weeks of gestation revealed a karyotype of 46,XY,dup (14) (q12q22.3)[6]/46,XY [14], and in uncultured amniocytes, quantitative fluorescence polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) analysis excluded uniparental disomy (UPD) 14, aCGH revealed arr 14q12q22.3 × 2.3 with 30% mosaicism for dup (14) (q12q22.3), and interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) showed 19.4% (24/124 cells) mosaicism for partial 14q duplication. She was encouraged to continue the pregnancy, and a 2450-g phenotypically normal male baby was delivered at 40 weeks of gestation. The karyotypes of cord blood, umbilical cord and placenta were 46,XY,dup (14) (q12q22.3)[14]/46,XY [26], 46,XY,dup (14) (q12q22.3)[7]/46,XY [33] and 46,XY,dup (14) (q12q22.3)[3]/46,XY [37], respectively. When follow-up at age four months, the neonate was phenotypically normal. The karyotype of peripheral blood was 46,XY,dup (14) (q12q22.3)[27]/46,XY [13], and interphase FISH analysis on 105 buccal mucosal cells detected partial 14q duplication signals in 5 cells (4.8% mosaicism). When follow-up at age nine months, the neonate was phenotypically normal. The karyotype of peripheral blood was 46,XY,dup (14) (q12q22.3)[25]/46,XY [15]. CONCLUSION: Mosaic dup (14) (q12q22.3) with a normal cell line at amniocentesis may be a benign condition, and can be associated with a favorable fetal outcome and cytogenetic discrepancy in various tissues.
