Abstract excerpt
Partial trisomy 8qter-->q23 or q24.1 has been reported in 15 literature cases. We add two further case reports here. Patient 1 inherited the derivative (2) of a balanced maternal reciprocal translocation t(2;8)(qter;q2300) after 2:2 disjunction and adjacent-1 segregation, and is trisomic for the segment 8qter-->q2300. Patient 2 inherited a recombinant (8) of a balanced maternal inverted insertion inv...
