Abstract excerpt
We describe the first case of a live-born neonate with mosaic tetrasomy 21q confirmed by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). A 38-year-old Caucasian female presented for amniocentesis for maternal age. Initial chromosome analysis of the amniocytes using GTG-banding showed a mos47,XY, +?i(12p)/46,XY karyotype. Follow-up studies with FISH identified the isochromosome as an i(21q); mos47,XY, +i(21q)/46,XY....
