  • Title: Cat-eye syndrome with unusual marker chromosome probably not chromosome 22.
    Author: Rosenfeld W, Verma RS, Jhaveri RC.
    Journal: Am J Med Genet; 1984 May; 18(1):19-24. PubMed ID: 6588751.
    Abstract:
    An unusual supernumerary chromosome with a single satellite on the long arm was found in a child with manifestations of the cat-eye syndrome including apparently low-set and malformed ears, preauricular tags, micrognathia, and imperforate anus. Although G-banding suggested that this extra material was chromosome 22, this was not confirmed by several other banding techniques. After examination of the parents' chromosomes, the nature and origin of this extra chromosome remains obscure. We conclude that patients previously diagnosed as having "partial trisomy 22" with incomplete cat-eye syndrome may have a different chromosome constitution when studied by various banding techniques.
