A chromosome 21‐derived minute marker in a mosaic trisomy 21 background: Implications for risk assessments in marker chromosome cases
11 Feb 2004
Abstract excerpt
We report a prenatal case of a chromosome 21-derived minute supernumerary marker, found as a mosaic along with a trisomy 21 cell line at amniocentesis. Follow-up analysis of other fetal tissues confirmed the mosaicism and also disclosed a normal cell line. It is likely that the marker reflects a mutation event that resulted in trisomy rescue early in embryonic development. Had the trisomy 21 cell line not been...
