  • Title: Mosaic tetrasomy 15q25-->qter in a newborn infant with multiple anomalies.
    Author: Van den Enden A, Verschraegen-Spae MR, Van Roy N, Decaluwe W, De Praeter C, Speleman F.
    Journal: Am J Med Genet; 1996 Jun 14; 63(3):482-5. PubMed ID: 8737657.
    Abstract:
    We describe a premature boy with metopic craniosynostosis, facial anomalies, atrial-septal defect, hydronephrosis and flexion contractures of lower limbs, and mosaic tetrasomy 15q25-->qter. The extra chromosome material was present in the form of an acentric marker. A number of clinical manifestations observed in this child were also found in 3 previously reported patients who were trisomic for the same part of chromosome 15 and in 2 patients who were tetrasomic for a larger segment of 15q.
