Poster: 10.P7 ; Chromosomal rearrangements involving three break-points are relatively rare, about 1/5,000 live births. When a chromosomal segment is moved from one part of a chromosome into another part of the same chromosome, it is considered an intrachromosomal insertion; the orientation of the inserted material in relation to the centromere may remain the same, resulting in a direct insertion, or reversed,...
Chromosome 1p36 deletion syndrome (MIM #607872) was first described in 1997 by Shapira et al. This condition is compatible with a monosomy of the 1p36 band in the distal region of the short arm of chromosome 1 and is the most common terminal deletion in humans, with an estimated prevalence of approximately 1 in 5,000 live births. This constitutional deletion is associated with mental retardation, developmental...
Interstitial deletions of chromosome 13 are known to be associated with retinoblastoma. A wider syndrome may accompany the deletion, including mental retardation and craniofacial dysmorphism. The severity of the phenotype depends on the extent of the deletion. Retinoblastoma is a malignant tumor in the retina and is the most common ocular cancer in children. The association of most cases of retinoblastoma with ...
