Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: We present molecular cytogenetic characterization of mosaicism for a small supernumerary marker chromosome (sSMC) derived from chromosome 8. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A 35-year-old woman underwent amniocentesis at 16 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 47,XY,+mar[20]/46,XY[39]. However, array comparative genomic hybridization analysis on the...
