Abstract excerpt
We report on a girl with the typical trisomy 9p syndrome who had an additional E-sized metacentric chromosome. On the basis of GTG- and CBG-banding, her karyotype was considered to be 47,XX,+der(9)(pter-->q13::q13-->q12:) de novo. Results of a fluorescence in situ hybridization study using a chromosome 9-specific painting probe were compatible with this cytogenetic interpretation. Molecular analyses of six highly...
