| مستخلص: |
Here we report the clinical and cytogenetic results of a family carrying a cryptic translocation involving chromosome 3pter and 21qter detected by single nucleotide polymorphism array and subtelomeric fluorescent in situ hybridisation analysis. The index patient, with mild mental retardation in combination with minor dysmorphic features, inherited the derivative chromosome 21 resulting in a partial trisomy of the short arm of chromosome 3 and a partial monosomy of the long arm of chromosome 21. Her apparently healthy brother inherited the derivative chromosome 3 resulting in a terminal deletion of the short arm of chromosome 3 and a terminal duplication of the long arm of chromosome 21. We discuss the different phenotypes for the 2 genotypes and argue for the importance of reporting these imbalances to achieve accurate genetic counseling in prenatal and postnatal diagnosis.
